2022 Map of Appleby

About this map

Appleby serves as a central hub in this portion of Nacogdoches County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of creek systems flowing through the East Texas terrain. The northern edge of Nacogdoches appears in the southwest, showing the city's outward growth toward the rural headwaters of Bayou La Nana. This survey illustrates a transitional area where suburban expansion meets long-standing agricultural and timber lands, evidenced by the numerous named branches and bayous like Bayou Carrizo and White Oak Br. Significant for genealogical research, several community landmarks are preserved on the map, including Bethel Cem, Post Oak Cem, Shady Grove Cem, and Moss Cem. These sites, often located near local watercourses like Naconiche Cr and Waffelow Cr, provide essential points of reference for tracing family histories and early settlement patterns in the region.
