2019 Map of Rockdale West

About this map

San Gabriel River meanders across this Central Texas landscape, defining the topography north of Rockdale. The area is characterized by numerous family and community burial grounds, which serve as essential markers for genealogical research in Milam County. From the International Order of Odd Fellows Cem near the town center to more secluded sites like Holtzclaw Cem, Murray Cem, and Gilleland Cem, the map documents a legacy of early settlement. The presence of smaller rail-side and rural communities such as Marjorie and Tracy highlights the historical importance of local transport networks. Significant water features like Voss Lake and Brushy Creek further delineate the land, while a dense network of Farm to Market roads, including FM 487 and FM 908, connects these scattered settlements to the hub of Rockdale.
