About this map

Avery serves as the central hub of this Red River County landscape, defined by a network of rural farm-to-market roads and a series of creek drainages. The settlement is organized around a grid of streets including N Austin St and E Texas Ave, situated just west of City Lake. The surrounding countryside is notable for its concentration of family and community burial grounds, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this part of Northeast Texas.

Several distinct drainages carve through the terrain, including Kickapoo Cr in the northwest and the winding Anderson Cr to the south. These waterways, along with White Oak Cr and Shawnee Cr, dictated the placement of early homesteads and cemeteries like Warthan Cem, Holder Cem, and Honeycutt Cem. The map's detailed road network, featuring numerous county roads like Co RD 3325, illustrates the persistent rural character of the region.
