2013 Map of Trickham

About this map

Trickham serves as the focal point of this rural Coleman County landscape, situated at the junction of FM 1178 and FM 218. The surrounding terrain is defined by the winding course of Mukewater Cr and the low-lying Deer Hollow. This part of Central Texas is heavily shaped by modern water management, evidenced by the series of large artificial basins including Soil Conservation Service Site 1 Reservoir, Soil Conservation Service Site 2 Reservoir, and Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir. For those researching local family histories, several burial grounds are preserved across the countryside, such as Rice Cem, Smith Cem, and Lee Cem, the latter of which sits near the banks of the W Fork Clear Cr. The map reveals a highly structured grid of county roads, like Cattleguard Rd, which support the ranching and agricultural operations typical of the region in the early 21st century.
