About this map

The Brazos River carves a winding path through this Austin County landscape, anchoring the historic town of San Felipe. This area, significant for its early Texas settlement history, is shown here as a patchwork of agricultural land and rural homesteads. Numerous family and local burial grounds, such as Rosses Cem, Waller Cem, and Frydek Cem, are scattered across the terrain, providing essential landmarks for genealogical research.

Infrastructure like the San Felipe Siding and the San Felipe Oil Field illustrates the intersection of rail transport and local resource extraction. To the north, the community of Clemons sits near small aviation hubs like Dry Branch Ranch Airport, while the southern portion of the map includes the settlement of Frydek and the residential development of Brazos Country. Tributaries such as Bessies Bayou and Irons Cr snake through the coastal prairie toward the main river channel.
