2022 Map of Turnersville

About this map

Turnersville anchors this Central Texas landscape where the Middle Bosque River and its numerous tributaries, including Thorp Br and Pickens Br, have carved a branching drainage pattern through Coryell County. The settlement pattern is defined by a network of farm-to-market roads and county lanes that follow the high ground between creek beds. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for locating several family and community burial grounds, such as Turnersville Cem, the Warren - Miller Cem, and the Crawford Cem further southeast. The terrain transitions from the river valley in the north toward Coryell Cr in the south, reflecting a rural economy built on the limestone-based geography of the Edwards Plateau's edge. The concentration of cemeteries alongside named watercourses like Cave Cr and Clear Cr suggests a long-standing history of rural family homesteads scattered throughout these hills.
