2013 Map of Raisin

About this map

Coleto Cr and the Guadalupe River dominate this coastal prairie landscape of Victoria County, where the 2013 landscape reveals a complex network of bayous and wetlands. Small family and community landmarks like Reeves Cem, Joshua Cem, and McDonald Cem are preserved among the ranching and energy-producing lands. The presence of the Coleto Creek Oil Field and Cologne Oil Field indicates the subsurface importance of the region, while the settlement of Raisin sits in the northwest near Boggy Cr. The eastern portion of the map is defined by meandering waterways including McDonough Bayou and Black Bayou, which feed into the larger river system. A notable archaeological or historical landmark, the Indian Mound, is situated near the riverbanks north of Sand Bayou, highlighting a long history of human activity in this flood-prone environment.
