2019 Map of Acworth

About this map

The Red River defines the border landscape of this 2019 survey, carving a complex path between Texas and Oklahoma. This stretch of the river is characterized by dynamic fluvial features, most notably the Lick Skillet Cut-Off and the nearby Lick-Skillet Lake, which illustrate the shifting nature of the river channel over time. On the Texas side, the small settlements of Acworth and Greenwood anchor the local geography, connected by a network of rural roads such as FM 1159. Genealogists and local historians will find the Bachman Cem south of the river, while the surrounding terrain is marked by numerous water bodies including Horseshoe Lake, Red Lake, and Colbert Lake. The map also details several modern water management features, including the Waterfall-Gilford-Creeks Site 1 Reservoir, nestled among family-named landmarks like Byarly Springs and McKinsey Slough.
