2016 Map of Tanglewood

About this map

Lexington and Tanglewood anchor this survey of the Lee County countryside, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of E Yegua Cr and its many tributaries. The area is characterized by a high density of small rural burial grounds, including German Cem, Lyles Cem, and Prospect Cem, providing valuable points of reference for genealogists tracing family histories in these settlements. The terrain transitions from the elevations of Marsh Hollow to the wetlands surrounding Footprints Lake and Sand Lake, illustrating the varied drainage patterns of the Brazos River basin. A network of country roads, such as FM 696 and Co RD 411, connects these agricultural outposts and the Lexington Airfield, reflecting a community structure built around small-town hubs and widely dispersed family homesteads.
