About this map

Yorktown and Nordheim anchor this survey of DeWitt County, revealing a landscape defined by an intricate network of Texas farm roads and natural drainage. The street grid of Yorktown is clearly delineated, featuring a concentration of thoroughfares such as N Church St, N Gohmert St, and W Main St, while the Westside Cem is positioned on the northwestern edge of the settlement.

Outside these residential centers, the terrain is shaped by numerous seasonal and permanent watercourses, including the westward-flowing Smith Cr, Yorktown Cr, and Thomas Cr. The rural character of the region is evident in the density of named ranch roads like Schneider Ranch Rd and Roeder Rd, which connect isolated homesteads and grazing lands. Further south, Eighteenmile Cr and Manahuilla Cr cross the lower quadrangle, highlighting the drainage patterns typical of the South Texas coastal plains.
