2019 Map of New Davy

About this map

Gruenau and New Davy anchor this agricultural landscape at the tri-county corner where DeWitt, Gonzales, and Karnes counties meet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of creek drainages, including the prominent Fifteenmile Coleto Cr and Little Salt Cr, which carve through the countryside. These waterways influenced the placement of early road networks such as Grueneau Rd and Gus Meyer Rd, many of which follow the natural ridgelines between watersheds. For those researching local family history, the map identifies small burial sites like House Cem and Sand Gate Cem, providing precise locations for these often overlooked rural landmarks. The survey also captures a long-standing ranching presence through labels like Dubose Ranch Rd, illustrating the enduring land-use patterns of the South Texas plains.
