About this map

Buckholts and the surrounding farmland of Milam County are defined by a dense network of watercourses and rural crossings. The landscape is dominated by the winding paths of Big Elm Creek, North Elm Creek, and South Elm Creek, which converge to create a complex drainage system through the central Texas plains. In the northern section, the community of Meeks sits near the intersection of Falls Road and FM 940, while Yarrelton occupies a central position among agricultural fields.

Religious and community history is anchored by the Marak Catholic and Methodius Cemetery and the nearby Saints Cyril and Methodius Cemetery, indicating the deep-seated cultural heritage of the area's settlers. Smaller features like Glaser Field and the evocatively named Dry Hollow provide specific points of interest for local researchers. The map also captures several county boundaries, including the meeting points of Falls, Bell, and Milam counties.
