2016 Map of Bryans Mill

About this map

Cusseta Mountains rise as a prominent landform in this portion of Cass County, overlooking the small settlement of Cusseta. The landscape is defined by a dense network of creek drainages, including Whatley Cr, Black Cr, and Powell Cr, which flow through the timbered terrain toward the northeast. This 2016 survey captures the rural character of the region, where land use is a mix of natural drainage basins and oil industry infrastructure, evidenced by the presence of the Shell Oil Co Rd. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies several established burial sites such as Pleasant Hill Cem, Powell Cem, Floyd Hill Cem, and Lambert Cem, which are scattered among the ridges and winding county roads. The northern edge of the map shows the transition into the wetlands surrounding Wright Patman Lake, indicating the proximity to larger water management systems in East Texas.
