When a deed near Elmendorf says lot and block, you'll need the Floresville plat map to make sense of it. In this Floresville guide: where plats are filed, how a plat differs from a parcel map, and the details that matter to buyers.

Getting started with the Floresville plat map

For a subdivision near La Vernia, look for the plat book reference on the parcel record; that makes the request quick.

Pulling up a parcel

Parcels around Poth appear on the Texas county CAD map, free to use and open without a login. If you only know roughly where the land is, pan along US Route 181 and click the parcel itself. With a lot near La Vernia, the record panel usually lists the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, a parcel ID and often a sale date.

Offices that can help

For assessment questions about property around Nixon go to the appraisal district, the office behind the parcel record. Questions about what you can build around Poth need the planning or permitting office, town or county, depending on location.

City limits and county records

Floresville sits in Wilson County, Texas, so its parcels are on the county's map. As the county seat, Floresville hosts the courthouse, so deeds and plats are filed in town. If the land is near La Vernia, city or town hall handles things like zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, while the county keeps the tax map. Land beyond the town limits near La Vernia generally follows county rules, not municipal ones.

Places you'll see on the map

Floresville holds the county offices, which is where the courthouse records live. Other places on the map include Poth, Elmendorf, Stockdale, and La Vernia. About 54,183 people live in Wilson County (Census estimate, 2023) spread over about 804 square miles. Wilson County was formed in 1860, and some chains of title near La Vernia are long.

When there's no plat

Rural land near La Vernia that was never subdivided may have no plat at all; the deed and any recorded survey describe it instead.

Two different maps

When the two disagree for a lot near La Vernia, the recorded plat and a survey control.

Land on the county line

Wilson County touches Atascosa County, Bexar County, Gonzales County, Guadalupe County, and Karnes County; every one of them runs a separate parcel map. Ground near Nixon that runs to the line can show up in two county records, so look at the neighboring map too. In and around Poth, the Platbookmapper state page links every bordering county map for Texas.

Before you lean on the lines

Listed acreage is an assessed number; just a licensed surveyor sets the real corners for a parcel near Nixon. For property near Stockdale, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month can take weeks to appear.

Recorded documents worth pulling

The map is an index, not the title: deeds, subdivision plats and easements covering ground around Stockdale sit with the County Clerk. Closer to Nixon, use the instrument number shown in the record panel to skip a name search.

Details on the Floresville plat map

If you're looking near La Vernia, the sheet usually includes lot and block numbers, dimensions and bearings, street rights-of-way and easements.

Online indexes and office visits

For property near Stockdale, some counties put plat images online, while others require a visit or a request; small fees are common.

When a plat changes

An amended plat may change lots around Elmendorf, search the index for replats of the same subdivision; vacated streets or alleys also get recorded.

Tracts outside towns near Elmendorf are often described by metes and bounds, which trace the boundary call by call. Town lots near Poth usually use lot and block from a recorded plat instead, which is simpler to follow. Keep the legal description for land near Elmendorf when you talk to a surveyor.

On site with the map

The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, handy when you're parked on a road near Stockdale, so load it before you lose signal. A printout of the tract near La Vernia is a good backup.
