2016 Map of Pawnee

About this map

The South Texas ranching landscape at the intersection of Karnes, Live Oak, and Bee Counties is defined by its seasonal drainage networks and scattered agricultural hubs. Nell and Pawnee serve as the primary focal points for this region, with local genealogy interests centered on the Nell Cem and Pawnee Cem. The terrain is shaped by several prominent watercourses, including Weedy Cr, Elm Cr, and Sulphur Cr, which carve through the plains. Transportation in the mid-2010s relied on a grid of farm-to-market roads and county routes like FM 882 and Co RD 262, while the San Christoval Ranch Airport highlights the vast distances of private ranching operations in this part of Texas. Small reservoirs like Arnold Lake dot the landscape, providing essential water sources for livestock in an area characterized by its intermittent creek systems.
