2010 Map of Beech Grove

About this map

Beech Grove and several small rural settlements characterize this Jasper County landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map reveals a high density of family-named burial grounds, such as Holton Cemetery, Sanders Cemetery, and Allen Cemetery, which provide essential clues for genealogists tracking local lineages in East Texas. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Big Walnut Run, Little Walnut Run, and Pickering Creek that flow toward the larger Big Creek in the south. The distribution of small communities like Science Hall in the northwest and Spring Hill in the northeast, connected by routes such as FM 777 and FM 252, suggests a long-standing pattern of dispersed timber and agricultural residences. Notable landmarks like Oak Hill and the Dunn Cemetery further anchor the geographic history of this region near the Louisiana border.
