About this map

Cowhouse Creek winds through the central corridor of this Coryell County landscape, carving a wide valley between the uplands of the Edwards Plateau. The rural community of Purmela and nearby South Purmela serve as the primary focal points of settlement in the northwest, while the small hamlet of Arnett is situated further east. This 1995 map captures a region defined by ranching and small-scale industry, evidenced by scattered corrals and a Gravel Pit located near the southern bend of the creek. Genealogists will find interest in several family-named landmarks and burial sites, including Smith Cem and King Cem near the southern settlement of King. In the southeast, the topography becomes more pronounced with the presence of Culp Mountain, McCluskey Mountain, and Bagget Mountain, providing a clear look at the local elevation changes that dictate the flow of smaller tributaries like Bee Creek and Honey Creek.
