2016 Map of Bonham

About this map

Bonham serves as the focal point of this North Texas study, showcasing the city's established grid and modern expansion. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Bois d'Arc Creek and its many tributaries, including Island Bayou and McClung Cr, which drain the surrounding prairie. For those researching local heritage, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites, documenting the locations of Willow Wild Cem, Inglish Cem, Gates Hill Cem, and several others across the county. The transition from urban to rural is marked by the presence of Jones Field to the north and the recreational waters of Bonham State Park Lake to the southeast. To the west, the smaller community of Midway sits at a crossroads, illustrating the persistence of outlying settlements amidst the broader agricultural and hydrological network of Fannin County.
