2016 Map of Peoria

About this map

Aquilla Lake dominates the central landscape of this Hill County survey, its sprawling shoreline reaching into the heart of a largely agricultural region. To the north, the settlement of Peoria sits near the intersection of several farm roads, while the community of Vaughan is situated to the southeast of the reservoir. The topography is defined by numerous drainage systems, including Aquilla Cr, Dead Horse Cr, and Cobb Cr, which feed the lake basin. For those researching local families, several burial grounds are preserved on the landscape, notably Hillcrest Garden of Memory Cem near the northern boundary and the Vaughan Cem further south. The map reflects a modern Texas landscape where traditional ranching and farming roads, such as FM 1947 and FM 3110, now navigate around the significant water management infrastructure of the dam and its accompanying lake.
