About this map

Rancho Nuevo Cem and Francisco Perez Cem sit within the wide brushlands of southern Texas, highlighting the legacy of family ranching in Brooks County. This 2022 survey of the Tacubaya area shows a landscape defined by seasonal water resources and remote access, centered on the Prieta Tank reservoir. The presence of these family cemeteries suggests long-term settlement patterns where isolated ranches functioned as self-contained communities far from major urban centers.

Transportation through this region relies on a network of rural roads including FM 755 and FM 430, which intersect with local routes like Ranch RD 430 and Co Rd 314. These thoroughfares connect the scattered ranchlands, providing the infrastructure for the area's agricultural and ranching economy. The map's detail allows for the tracing of property boundaries and traditional land use in a region where geography and heritage are closely intertwined.
