2016 Map of Bettie

About this map

Little Cypress Creek and its many tributaries, such as Blasingame Branch and Kelsey Creek, define the water-rich landscape of northern Upshur County. This modern survey illustrates the settlement patterns of several small communities including Bettie, Union Hill, Bethlehem, and Ewell. The presence of Zion Hill Cemetery and Lone Mountain Cemetery offers specific points of interest for those tracing family lineages in this part of East Texas. To the northeast, the terrain rises toward Howell Mountain and Union Ridge, while the southeast is characterized by the Barnwell Mountains. The map provides a detailed view of the rural road network, from historic routes like Cherokee Trace to localized paths like Jackrabbit Road and Panda Road.
