For any lot around Elmendorf, a look at the Floresville GIS map gives you the outline, the owner of record and a parcel ID. This Floresville guide covers: where that map lives, the fastest ways to search, and what to double-check with records.
Getting started with the Floresville GIS map
Parcel maps here are usually run by the county, not the town, so for Floresville the go-to is the Texas county CAD map.
Where the parcel data lives
Your first stop is the Texas county CAD map; it covers every assessed parcel from Nixon to La Vernia. Without an address in hand, follow US Route 181 on the aerial and select the outline. On ground around Elmendorf, write down the parcel ID before closing the panel; every records desk in the county uses it to find the file.
Getting your bearings
Floresville holds the county offices, home to the main records offices. Smaller places on the map include Poth, Elmendorf, Stockdale, and La Vernia, where town lots give way to larger tracts. About 54,183 people live in Wilson County (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) across about 804 square miles. Wilson County dates to 1860, so old deeds can run back a long way.
Getting answers from the right desk
For assessment questions about property around Nixon belong with the appraisal district, which maintains the tax roll. Building or septic questions for a lot near Stockdale need the planning or permitting office, town or county, depending on location.
Taking the map into the field
Most viewers work in a phone browser, handy when you're parked on a road near La Vernia, but coverage can be spotty out of town. A saved image of the lot near La Vernia and its lines helps when you meet an owner or agent.
Saving what you find
Save a screenshot of the lot near Stockdale and its record panel, which helps later when you ask the assessor or a title company.
City limits and county records
Floresville lies within Wilson County, Texas, which means parcel data comes from the county. Floresville is also the county seat, so deeds and plats are filed in town. If the land is near Nixon, city or town hall handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, while the county keeps the tax map. Acreage past the city limits near Poth usually falls under county rules instead.
Three ways to find a parcel
By address works best for lots in Floresville; for owner searches, try last name first. In and around La Vernia, searching by parcel number never misses, and you'll find it on tax statements.
What the layers show
For acreage around Elmendorf, layer lists often include municipal boundaries, floodplain and sometimes zoning; availability varies.
Land on the county line
Wilson County borders Atascosa County, Bexar County, Gonzales County, Guadalupe County, and Karnes County, all with their own assessor records. Ground near Stockdale that runs to the line can be split across two assessors' files, so check the neighboring map too. If you're looking near Poth, the Platbookmapper state page lists each neighboring county map for Texas.
Reading a parcel record
A parcel card near Poth normally gives owner, mailing address, assessed value and acreage.
Troubleshooting the viewer
When the map won't open around La Vernia, try a desktop browser or clear the cache; the Platbookmapper county page tracks the current link.
How land is described here
Tracts outside towns near Nixon commonly use metes-and-bounds descriptions, which trace the boundary call by call. Platted lots around La Vernia are typically described by lot and block, which is simpler to follow. Keep the legal description for land near Nixon for any title or survey request.
A word on accuracy
Acreage on the record is a tax-roll number; just a licensed surveyor establishes the real corners on land around Nixon. Out toward Poth, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Deeds, plats and who keeps them
Before you sign anything, request the recorded deed from the County Clerk; the parcel map near Nixon only summarizes it. For a home near La Vernia, have ready the instrument number shown in the record panel and the lookup takes minutes.

Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey, especially for fences, setbacks, or boundary disputes.
