About this map

Schroeder and the surrounding rangelands along the Victoria and Goliad county line are defined by a complex network of seasonal creeks and family-named cemeteries. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape where historical burial grounds such as Mistletoe Cem, Singer Cem, and Berger Cem remain as markers of early settlement patterns among the drainage basins of Coleto Cr and Hog Thief Cr.

The presence of the Saint Lukes Evangelical Lutheran Church Cem at the community of Schroeder highlights the area's cultural heritage. The terrain is deeply etched by numerous waterways including Gobbler Cr and Turkey Cr, while the road network, including FM 622 and FM 236, traces the high ground between these drainages. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for smaller, scattered sites like Woodlawn Cem and Mission Valley Cem near the eastern boundary.
