2022 Map of Boyd

About this map

The West Fork Trinity River winds through this Wise County landscape, defining the character of the terrain north of the northern reaches of Eagle Mountain Lake. The central hub of Boyd is depicted with a detailed street grid, including its connection to the rail corridor along W Rock Island Ave. This area is particularly significant for genealogical research, as it preserves the locations of numerous small family and community burial grounds such as Arkansas Cem, Hog Branch Cem, and Pleasant Grove Cem. The map illustrates the transition from the consolidated town centers of Rhome and Aurora to the scattered settlements of Keeter and Fairview. The complex drainage network of Walnut Cr, Deep Cr, and Blue Cr highlights the water-rich bottomlands that shaped the local agricultural and settlement patterns before the full development of suburban expansion.
