About this map

Old Noxville sits at the northern edge of this Kimble and Kerr County landscape, where the James River and Little Devils River carve through a terrain defined by deep draws and named springs. The settlement is anchored by the Noxville Cem, providing a focal point for genealogical research in this rural portion of the Edwards Plateau. The hydrology of the area is particularly detailed, featuring The Big Springs, Bur Oak Spring, and Old Ranch Spring, which likely served as vital water sources for the surrounding ranching operations.

Transportation through these limestone hills relies on a network of rural routes such as Noxville Rd and Weatherby Rd, while the Lang Ranch Airport indicates modern connectivity in the southern portion of the sheet. The landscape is deeply dissected by numerous valleys, including Monroe Hollow, Kits Hollow, and Bell Hollow, reflecting the drainage patterns feeding into the river systems. This survey captures the rural character of the Texas Hill Country, where land use is dictated by the availability of water and the orientation of the natural draws.
