About this map

Tehuacana Cr and its western branch, W Tehuacana Cr, carve through this rural landscape in Medina County, shaping a terrain of drainage basins and isolated rises like Red Hill. The area is characterized by a sparse network of county roads and family-named landmarks that reflect a long-standing agricultural and ranching history. This environment is punctuated by small, localized points of interest such as Faseler Lake and the intermittent flows of Seco Cr and Squirrel Cr.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of family-named burial grounds across the region. The map identifies Yancey Cem, Butts Cem, and Styles Cem, providing precise locations for these historical sites within the larger township framework. These features, along with the detailed alignment of routes like FM 2200 and Taylor LN, document the persistence of rural settlement patterns in this part of Texas.
