About this map

Seguin sits at a geographic crossroads in south central Texas, where the Southern Pacific railroad meets the winding Guadalupe River. The 1964 topography, later revised with 1973 aerial data, captures a community balanced between its academic and civic core. The campus of Texas Lutheran College and numerous local schools like Saegert Jr H S and Ball High Sch serve the residential center, while the Guadalupe Valley Hospital and the central Courthouse anchor the city's infrastructure.

The surrounding landscape is deeply shaped by the river system, featuring Meadow Lake and the confluence of numerous creeks like Geronimo Creek and Walnut Creek. To the east, the Seguin Auxiliary Airfield and an adjacent Military Reservation indicate a significant mid-century defense footprint. For the family researcher, several burial grounds are documented, including Riverside Cemetery, San Geronimo Cem, and the more remote Dugger Cem to the south.
