2016 Map of Thrifty

About this map

Thrifty and the surrounding ranchlands of central Texas are defined by a complex drainage network where the Coleman Co Brown Co line bisects the landscape. Numerous watercourses including Jim Ned Creek, Mud Cr, and Sand Cr carve through the terrain, punctuated by significant landmarks like Indian Mtn and Mayberry Mtn. The eastern edge of the sheet touches the shoreline of Lake Brownwood, reflecting the importance of water management in this arid region, further evidenced by the Soil Conservation Service Site 2 Reservoir. Genealogists and local historians can find several quiet burial grounds scattered across the countryside, including Salem Cem, Fairview Cem, and Mud Creek Cem. The road network, consisting of many county roads and the Old Comanche Rd, connects isolated homesteads and ranches, tracing the historic movement of people and livestock through prominent features like Gobbler Hollow and Cedar Ridge.
