2022 Map of Pottsville

About this map

Pottsville and the surrounding rural landscape of Hamilton County are defined by a network of creeks and several sites of local genealogical significance. The terrain is characterized by the prominent Hoover Knobs to the north and the winding paths of Cowhouse Cr and Warren Cr. A trio of cemeteries north of the main settlement—Immanuel Lutheran Cem, Trinity Lutheran Cem, and the nearby Pottsville Cem—suggests a community rooted in a shared cultural and religious heritage. To the west, the Rea Family Cem provides a more private window into the early family-led settlement of this region. The map captures a contemporary look at the ranching and agricultural country of Central Texas, where local travel still relies on a grid of county roads and state farm-to-market routes like FM 218 and FM 221. Drainage patterns are finely detailed, showing the convergence of School Land Cr and Baptist Br as they feed into the larger watersheds that shaped the local topography.
