2016 Map of Waller NW

About this map

Kirby Chapel and the small Rosenau Cem sit among a landscape of sprawling ranch land and creek drainages where Waller, Harris, and Grimes counties meet. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of numerous systems, including Threemile Cr, Gladish Cr, and Spring Cr, which carve through the countryside alongside smaller water bodies like Japhet Lake and Lynch Lake. Modern rural infrastructure is evidenced by a dense network of country roads such as Skymac Ranch Rd and Fields Store Rd, reflecting the mid-2010s land use patterns of this Texas coastal prairie region. The proximity of these county lines highlights the historical transition between agricultural ventures and the gradual outward reach of the Greater Houston area.
