2013 Map of Owens

About this map

Pecan Bayou and its numerous tributaries, including Adams Br and Red Hole Cr, define the drainage patterns of this Central Texas landscape near the southern edge of Lake Brownwood. The small settlement of Owens sits at a highway junction in the northern portion of the sheet, while the southern reaches are dominated by transportation infrastructure and aviation hubs like the Brownwood Regional Airport and the smaller Flying S Air Ranch Airport. The map is particularly detailed regarding water management, featuring several Soil Conservation Service reservoirs such as Site 17 Reservoir. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, ranging from the Heflin Cem in the northeast to Roberts Cem and the Eastlawn Cem further south. The land is networked by an extensive system of county roads, providing access to rural homesteads and agricultural tracts across Delaware Cr.
