2010 Map of New Berlin

About this map

Cibolo Creek and its many tributaries, including Blue Creek and Elm Creek, define the rural geography of this Guadalupe County landscape. Small communities and named crossroads such as New Berlin, Sweet Home, and Olmos are connected by a network of farm roads and family-named lanes like Kunde Rd and Brietzke Rd. The area is characterized by its high density of family and community burial grounds, with eight distinct sites mapped including Linne Cemetery, Schmidt Cemetery, and the Concrete Cemetery in the south. The southeastern portion of the sheet reveals the industrial presence of the La Vernia Oil Field, where numerous well pads dot the terrain alongside winding paths like O'Daniel Rd. This collection of features reflects a persistent agrarian pattern interspersed with modern petroleum extraction and deep-rooted local history.
