2013 Map of Anahuac

About this map

The Trinity River delta dominates this coastal landscape, where the river fans out into complex waterways like Smith Bayou and Old River Pass before entering Trinity Bay. The settlement of Anahuac sits at the edge of Lake Anahuac, serving as a focal point for the region's historic transition from a defensive outpost at Old Fort Anahuac to a modern center of local industry. This 2013 survey illustrates the dense network of family heritage preserved in numerous local burial grounds, including the Baxter Cem, Bayshore Cem, and the Wallisville Cem near the river bend.
