About this map

Silver Valley and Novice anchor this Central Texas landscape, where the rolling terrain of Coleman County is marked by a network of intermittent watercourses and small reservoirs. The area is defined by the headwaters of several drainages, including the Bachelor Prong and Rough Cr, which carve through the land alongside prominent elevations like Robinson Peak. This 2022 survey documents a rural infrastructure where ranch roads and county lines connect long-standing community landmarks.

Genealogists and local historians can trace several significant burial grounds across the quadrangle, from Rough Creek Cem in the northwest to White Chapel Cem in the south. The presence of water management sites, such as the Soil Conservation Service Site 33 Reservoir, indicates the local reliance on engineered water sources in a region characterized by ephemeral streams like Turtle Bayou and Live Oak Br.
