2022 Map of Birdwell Lake

About this map

Small, family-named burial grounds and a dense network of creek branches define this section of Tyler County. The landscape is characterized by its complex drainage, where Wolf Creek and Theuvenins Cr receive numerous tributaries such as Push Cr and Wash Hole Br. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in cemetery locations, documenting sites like Antioch Cem, the Moss Hill Community Cem, and the Rigsby - Weaver Cem along the secondary roads. The namesake Birdwell Lake sits near the junction of FM 1746 and Co RD 4320, while more remote sites like the Milner - Dean Cem are found along the eastern ridges. This modern survey reflects the enduring rural structure of East Texas, where the local economy and land divisions remain tied to traditional road layouts and the numerous branches feeding the Neches River basin.
