2010 Map of Nolan

About this map

The small community of Nolan serves as the focal point for this rural landscape in the southern part of Nolan County, where the plains meet distinct geological breaks. High points such as Black Point, Ringtop, and the prominent Birdsnest Bluff define the horizon, while the drainage network is carved by Mulberry Creek and Weaver Springs Creek. The agricultural and ranching heritage of the area is evident in the dense grid of county roads, including Co RD 208 and Co RD 196, which connect isolated homesteads and local landmarks. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of early burial sites like Slater Chapel Cemetery and Dora Cemetery. The terrain is further characterized by local natural features like Coffee Hollow and Indian Hand Bluff, illustrating the intersection of the region's rugged geography with long-established Texas cattle and farming traditions.
