About this map

Smiley serves as the primary hub of this south Texas landscape, where a dense network of residential streets like Wheat, Finch, and Carpenter cluster near the intersection of several farm-to-market roads. The town's layout reflects a legacy of small-scale settlement, supported by a system of rural routes that fan out into the surrounding ranchland. Waterways define the local topography, with Sandies Cr and Little Elm Cr cutting through the terrain towards Patterson Lake.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial sites, including Union Hill Cem to the north and Bundick Cem situated east of the town center. The landscape is marked by distinct drainage features such as Long Hollow and Evans Hollow, which characterize the geography of Gonzales County. This survey provides an exact record of property access via numerous county roads, such as Co RD 180 and Co RD 135, which connect the scattered homesteads to the central community of Smiley.
