About this map

The Schulenburg township, a key rail and road crossroads in Fayette County, is the focal point of this 2010 landscape. The town’s agricultural heritage is anchored by the Schulenburg Cotton Compress, while the surrounding rural countryside is divided by the meandering path of the West Navidad River and its numerous tributaries like Black Bayou and Brushy Creek. North of the main settlement lies High Hill, a community defined by its rolling topography and historical significance.

Local researchers can trace several burial grounds that mark the heritage of the region, including the Old High Hill Cemetery and the Lyons Cemetery to the southeast. The map details a dense network of farm-to-market roads and family-named thoroughfares such as Ludwig Kainer Rd and Dittrich Rd, reflecting the generational landholdings of the area. Industrial and transportation landmarks, from the Marty Ranch Airport to the Mulberry Creek Bridge, reveal how the modern infrastructure has integrated with the natural drainage systems of the Gulf Coastal Plain.
