2022 Map of Pilgrim

About this map

Wrightsboro serves as the primary focal point of this rural Gonzales County landscape, where the branching drainage of Sandies Creek and Salty Creek creates a network of seasonal watercourses and localized lakes. The area is marked by a deep genealogical record, preserved through several distinct burial grounds including the Wrightsboro Cemetery, the Wrightsboro Latin American Cemetery, and the distant Pilgrim Cemetery to the southeast. The terrain rises slightly at Windy Hill, overlooking a series of low-lying bodies of water such as Seeny Lake, Claybottom Lake, and the oxbow-like Horseshoe Lake. A web of farm-to-market roads and county routes, including FM 1116 and FM 108 North, connects these scattered settlements and water features, tracing the traditional ranching and agricultural patterns of south-central Texas.
