About this map

The Red River marks the northern boundary of this North Texas landscape, where the meandering course of Choctaw Creek and its many tributaries, including Mill Creek and Jack Branch, carve through the terrain of Grayson Co and Fannin Co. The community of Ambrose and the settlement at South Gale anchor the local geography, surrounded by a network of family-named landmarks and rural landmarks. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites, from Cherry Mound Cem and Dugan Cem to Virginia Point Cem and Bush Cem. Transportation history is evident in the path of the Missouri Kansas Texas railroad and an Old Railroad Grade that speaks to earlier transit routes. In the southeast, the waters of Valley Lake indicate the impact of modern water management on this traditionally agrarian region.
