About this map

Bettie and its surrounding rural communities are situated among the intricate drainage basins of Little Cypress Cr and Lilly Cr. The landscape is characterized by a high density of named settlements including Union Hill, Concord, and Ewell, suggesting a historically well-distributed population connected by rural routes like FM-593 and Old Highway 271 N. To the southwest, the expansive Lake Gilmer and its feeder streams like Kelsey Cr dominate the local geography.

Researchers will find several significant local landmarks, from the Gilmont Lookout and Camp Gilmont in the east to family-interest sites like Zion Hill Cem and Lone Mtn Cem. The map reveals a unique local naming convention for smaller roads, featuring a variety of animals and flora such as Armadillo Rd, Llama Rd, and Dahlia Rd. Industrial and rail history is suggested by labels such as Smith Siding and Midway, while smaller water bodies like Bishop Lake and Grassy Lake dot the northern reaches.
