2016 Map of Tomball

About this map

The northern reaches of Houston and the developed landscape of Tomball are defined by a complex network of residential streets and natural drainage patterns. The area is intersected by numerous waterways, including Willow Creek, Cypress Creek, and several deep-cut gullies such as Cannon Gully and Faulkey Gully. This 2016 survey shows the dense suburban expansion into historic areas like Kohrville and Louetta. Genealogists will find significant value in the preservation of numerous family-named burial grounds scattered throughout the residential blocks, including Pillot Cem, Willow Creek Cem, and Bonin Cem. Aviation infrastructure is centered on the David Wayne Hooks Memorial Airport in the east. The map captures a moment of intensive land use where traditional Texas settlements like Hufsmith and Klein have integrated into the expanding Harris County metropolitan grid while maintaining their geographic identities.
