About this map

Lake Tyler and the surrounding Smith County countryside appear here as they were being reshaped by post-war infrastructure and oil exploration. The eastern edge of Tyler extends into this landscape, where the Missouri Pacific railroad cuts a straight line through small rural communities like Bascom and Chapel Hill. These settlements are marked by high concentrations of local landmarks, including several family-named burial grounds such as Belcher Cem and Meador Cem, along with community anchors like Emmanuel Ch and New Zion Ch.
