About this map

Oglesby serves as the primary hub of this Central Texas landscape, situated at the crossroads of FM 1996 and local ranch roads. The geography is defined by a dense network of waterways feeding into the Leon River at the southern boundary, including the meandering paths of Coryell Creek and Pew Branch. This area preserves several significant genealogical sites, notably Blackfoot Cemetery and Post Oak Cemetery, which speak to the long-standing rural community identity.

Small settlements such as Lime City and Cavitt are recorded near the river, while modern recreation and transport are evidenced by the Midway Drag Strip and a grid of rural lanes like Punkin Center Rd and Standpipe Rd. The layout of these routes, including Knowles Rd and Palmer Rd, illustrates the transition from traditional farm-to-market traffic to contemporary rural residential patterns in McLennan and Coryell counties.
