About this map

Bronson stands at the northeast corner of this San Augustine County landscape, where the local road network centers on the junction of FM-1 and Little Flock Rd. The western portion of the terrain is defined by the expansive Sam Rayburn Reservoir, which has altered the original path of Chiamon Bayou and several smaller tributaries like Bobbitt Creek. This 2010 survey illustrates the transition from the lakeside residential developments of Glen Oaks and Anthony Harbor to the rural timberlands and scattered family settlements found further inland.

Local history and genealogy are preserved in numerous burial sites dotted across the countryside, including Horton Cemetery, Bobbitt Cemetery, and Woods Cemetery. The rural community of Blue Springs is located south of the center, situated near the headwaters of Briar Branch and Huckleberry Creek. This map is particularly useful for identifying the specific creek drainages that define the local geography, such as Tiger Creek and Sandy Creek, which flow through the undulating East Texas piney woods.
