2010 Map of Oakland

About this map

Oakland and its surrounding rural landscapes in Colorado County are defined by the convergence of the East Navidad River and West Navidad River, which form the main branch of the Navidad River just south of town. The area is exceptionally notable for its high density of family and community burial grounds, reflecting the deep genealogical roots of this Texas settlement. From the Oakland Hill Cemetery to the Bila Hora Cemetery and Shiloh Cemetery, these sites are scattered across the watershed, often located near local tributaries like Cottonwood Creek and Honey Creek.
