2015 Map of Bancroft

About this map

The Sabine River serves as the winding border between Louisiana and Texas in this 2015 survey, defining the western edge of Bancroft. The landscape is dominated by the complex hydrology of the river basin, featuring deep meanders like Snider Bend and Taylor Bend, along with numerous oxbows and backwaters such as Sydney Lake, Pecan Lake, and Skinner Lake. This topography illustrates the river's historical shifts through the low-lying bottomlands, where drainage into the river is facilitated by Donahoe Cr and Big Cow Creek.
