About this map

Irick Cem sits near the eastern boundary of this West Texas agricultural landscape, marking a quiet point of local history amidst the expansive fields of the Southern High Plains. The terrain is defined by its subtle drainage patterns, with Running Water Draw and Callahan Draw cutting gentle paths across the plains. These ephemeral waterways dictate the layout of the local road network, which follows a rigid section-line grid typical of the region's development.

Local infrastructure is anchored by farm-to-market routes like FM 789 and FM 784, which connect the rural homesteads and agricultural operations. A unique feature of this specific area is the naming of agricultural access ways, such as Farmer Turnrow, illustrating the intensive land use and the importance of organized movement through the fields. This map provides a clear record of land division and rural Texas life along the Hale Co/Floyd Co line.
