A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- ) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point at the Franklin Cemetery. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 28.8453, Longitude: -97.2908       In this case, the coordinates for the Franklin Cemetery have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
