2016 Map of Tackett Mountain

About this map

Murray occupies the western edge of this Young County landscape, a region defined by the complex drainage systems that feed toward the Brazos River in the east. Numerous small water features, including Tub Tank and Bait Tank, indicate a pastoral environment where water management is central to the land's utility. The topography rises significantly toward Tackett Mountain in the southeast, while the northern reaches are marked by the presence of Woodward Lake and Manning Vick Lake Number 2. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of Murray Cem and Tyra Cem, essential landmarks for tracing family history in this part of Texas. A network of rural routes, such as Macabee Rd and FM 3109, connects the dispersed ranching properties like Fisher Ranch Rd to the wider county infrastructure.
