2010 Map of Turkey Knob

About this map

Turkey Knob serves as a central landmark for this Hill Country landscape, where the drainage networks of Pipe Creek, Bear Creek, and Privilege Creek define the local topography. This 2010 survey reveals a rural area shaped by private landholdings and small-scale water management, evidenced by the Youngblood Lake Dam and Berry Lake Dam. The terrain is characterized by numerous hollows, including Cloud Hollow and Bald Hollow, which transition into prominent heights like Cloud Mountain. For family historians, the presence of the Langridge Family Cemetery and Polly Cemetery provides specific genealogical anchors within this sparsely settled ranching region. Natural water sources like Sycamore Spring, Champee Spring, and Wagner Spring indicate the enduring importance of groundwater in this environment, while a modern network of ranch roads connects the various holdings across the rugged creek beds.
