2022 Map of Pearl

About this map

Pearl occupies a central position in this landscape of the Texas Hill Country, where the terrain is defined by a series of prominent gaps and limestone springs. The community is situated near Pearl Cem and serves as a junction for local routes like Pearl Rd and FM 183. This area, bordering Hamilton and Lampasas counties, reveals a complex network of seasonal drainages including Cowhouse Creek and Cromeans Cr. Genealogists will find the Bee House Cem particularly notable, located south of Live Oak Gap near the banks of Bullard Cr. The topography is marked by named elevations like Twin Mtn and Fletchers Point, which overlook a series of natural water sources such as Manos Spring, Whitewalker Spring, and Old Cottonwood Spring, indicating a long history of settlement tied to reliable water in a semi-arid environment.
