2022 Map of Winchester

About this map

The Colorado River carves the southwestern corner of this landscape, anchoring a rural territory where the borders of Bastrop, Lee, and Fayette counties converge. Near the eastern edge, the community of Winchester serves as a local focal point, characterized by several burial grounds including Winchester Cem, Shiloh Cem, and the Saint Michaels Lutheran Church Cem. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages like Pin Oak Cr and Gravelly Cr, which feed into local landmarks such as Lake Thunderbird and Parker Lake Dam. This 2022 survey reveals a landscape of established family holdings and ranches, such as Meuth Ranch, alongside evidence of resource extraction indicated by Oil Field Rd. The distribution of scattered cemeteries, including the Cunningham Cem and Saint Marys Catholic Cem, suggests a deep-rooted pattern of family settlement across these Texas plains.
