About this map

Little Pine Island Bayou and Pine Island Bayou dominate this coastal plain landscape along the border of Hardin and Jefferson Counties. The area is defined by a complex network of waterways and drainage features, including Grassy Pond Slough, Reeder Slough, and numerous named gullies such as Tenmile Gully and Coon Marsh Gully. These natural corridors frame the boundaries of the Big Thicket National Preserve, which occupies a significant portion of the central terrain.

Residential growth is concentrated in the established communities of Lumberton, Pine Ridge, and Bevil Oaks. The map reveals a transition from the open expanses of Sour Lake Prairie to dense residential street grids. Family history researchers may find interest in local landmarks like Fertitta Lake, Fralise Pond, and the corridor following Sapp Graveyard Rd, indicating the deep-rooted settlement patterns of this Southeast Texas region.
