New Fountain serves as the focal point for this rural Medina County landscape, situated near the intersection of several local routes. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages, including Verde Cr, Second Cr, and Quihi Cr, which carve through the territory. This map is particularly valuable for genealogical research, as it identifies several family-named and local burial sites such as Decker Cem, Britsch Cem, and Saint Johns Cem. The settlement pattern is largely dictated by the watercourses and an extensive grid of country roads, including Co RD 251 and Co RD 351. In the northwest, Haass Field stands as a notable landmark amidst the undulating contours. The transition between the higher elevations and the creek beds illustrates the traditional land use patterns of this Texas Hill Country region.
