About this map

Butler and the surrounding settlement of Red Lake anchor this 2010 survey of eastern Freestone County, Texas. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of managed water, characterized by numerous private and named reservoirs such as Indian Creek Lake, Pearson Lake, and Burleson Lake. These impoundments, several of which bear names like Harding Lake and Little Red Lake, indicate a region heavily utilized for ranching, recreation, or agricultural water management.

Genealogists and local historians can locate family landmarks like Sand Hill and its associated Sand Hill Cemetery, along with Maze Cemetery to the southeast. The natural drainage of the area is governed by slow-moving watercourses such as Jelly Slough and Gaston Branch, which meander through a terrain crisscrossed by a dense network of county and farm-to-market roads, including FM 489 and Co RD 301.
