Colorado County Places
Landmarks & Vanished Communities
This index preserves the TXGenWeb collection of named places, geographic features, historic sites, and vanished communities associated with Colorado County, Texas.
About the coordinates:
The USGS no longer maintains the GNIS database links formerly
used by this collection. Copy and paste a latitude/longitude
pair into a modern map service to view the location. Older
coordinates may reflect NAD27 rather than NAD83, so some points
can appear slightly displaced.
