2010 Map of Raisin

About this map

Coleto Creek winds through this coastal prairie landscape, meeting the Guadalupe River as it creates a complex network of wetlands and oxbow lakes. The 2010 geography reveals a transition from traditional ranching lands like Terrell Ranch to active industrial extraction at the Coleto Creek Oil Field and Cologne Oil Field. For local historians and genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of several family and community landmarks, including Reeves Cemetery, Joshua Cemetery, and McDonald Cemetery. Significant water features such as Stubbs Lake, Mary Lake, and McDonough Bayou characterize the eastern portion of the quadrangle, while the presence of an Indian Mound near the river indicates the long-standing human history of this river valley.
