2012 Map of Old Noxville

About this map

Old Noxville sits at the northern edge of this landscape, a settlement characterized by its proximity to the Noxville Cem and the complex drainage of Monroe Hollow. The terrain is defined by a vast network of water-harvesting landmarks, indicating a rural economy deeply reliant on subsurface resources. Named sites such as the Eclipse Windmill, Triple Tanks Windmill, and Windmill Number Two are distributed across the ranchlands, providing evidence of traditional livestock management practices in the Edwards Plateau region. The map tracks the passage of the James River in the northwest and the winding course of the Little Devils River through the southern sections. Notable water sources like The Big Springs and Bur Oak Spring are tucked within topographic depressions such as Bell Hollow and Kits Hollow, where the local geology forces groundwater to the surface, creating vital points of interest for historical land-use research.
