About this map

Exray Cem and Liberty Cem serve as historical anchors for this rural stretch of Erath County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of county roads and intermittent waterways. The terrain rises toward the north at Deaton Mtn and features the distinct peaks of the Twin Mountains to the east. These elevations overlook a complex drainage system including Turkey Cr, Lost Cr, and Little Sunday Cr, which carve through the countryside.

Industrial and community activity is centered around points like Kimzey Airport and several small cemeteries including Russell Chapel Cem. A sprawling web of local transit, from Co RD 120 to Co RD 137, connects the ranching and agricultural lands. The presence of Stewart Lake provides one of the few named bodies of standing water in a region primarily shaped by the seasonal flow of creeks such as Barton Cr and Hannibal Cr.
