About this map

The San Bernard River winds through this coastal prairie landscape in Austin County, defining a region where agricultural tracts are intersected by a complex network of waterways. The settlement of Rexville serves as a central point in this rural area, surrounded by the various forks of the Bernard drainage, including Little Bernard Cr and E Bernard Cr. The map reveals a land structured by long-established road names such as Mound Rd and Beckendorff Rd, reflecting the heritage of local landholding families.

Surface water is a dominant feature, from the secluded Lake Virnau to smaller tributaries like Hog Br and Willow Br. This survey documents the modern layout of rural Texas before further suburban expansion, capturing the placement of farms and ranches connected by routes like FM 3538 and FM 3013 Rd. It provides a clear record of the hydrologic and road infrastructure that has shaped life in the Sealy vicinity for generations.
