2019 Map of Birdwell Lake

About this map

Hopewell Cem stands near the center of this rural Tyler County landscape, situated among the undulating headwaters of numerous creeks that define the local geography. The area is characterized by an intricate drainage network where Wolf Creek and Push Cr flow through the northern reaches, while the southern terrain is marked by colorfully named tributaries such as Drunkards Br, Wash Hole Br, and Sleepy Hollow Br. Settlement patterns follow the high ground between these drainages, connected by a network of county roads like Antioch Rd and state routes including FM 1746. Central to the map's lower-west quadrant is Birdwell Lake, a notable local water body. The presence of the Tyler Co Sanitary Land Fill Rd and numerous modern road designations provides a clear view of contemporary land use in this timbered region of East Texas.
