1984 Map of Arcadia

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Arcadia and the surrounding piney woods of Shelby County are defined by an intricate network of waterways draining toward the east. This 1980s landscape shows the quiet rural character of eastern Texas, where small settlements like Huber and Folsom serve as local anchors. The terrain is notably dissected by numerous named drainages, including Huana Creek, Chicken Bayou, and Ramsey Creek, which influence the local road patterns and land use. Genealogists and local historians will find several rural Cem sites marked across the sheet, often located on higher ground near these creek systems. A prominent Lookout Tower stands as a landmark for forest management in this timber-heavy region. The map captures a moment before significant modern expansion, preserving the locations of family-named features like Pounds Creek and Walker Creek alongside the winding course of Beur Bayou.
