About this map

The Tehuacana Hills dominate the northern landscape of this Limestone County quadrangle, providing a high-ground setting for the historic settlement of Tehuacana. Below these heights, the land transitions into a complex network of creeks, including Jacks Cr and Rocky Cr, which feed into the Navasota River basin. The central and western portions are defined by Lake Mexia, a significant water body bordered by Comanche Spring and an intricate grid of rural routes such as Ranch Rd 2681.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established landmarks like Honest Ridge Cem and the community of Forest Glade, which sits near the Forest Glade Cem. Modern infrastructure, such as the Mexia-Limestone County Airport, is clearly visible alongside numerous reservoirs, including Soil Conservation Service Site 20 Reservoir, reflecting mid-to-late 20th-century water management efforts across the Texas plains.
