2010 Map of Carthage

About this map

Carthage serves as the focal point of this Panola County landscape, where the urban grid meets the complex hydrology of the Sabine River valley. To the north and east, the river's path is defined by a dense network of secondary waterways including Old River Lakes, The Basin, and Horseshoe Lake, illustrating the shifting nature of the river bottomlands. This 2010 survey shows the town's expansion along routes like W Panola St and S Shelby St, while maintaining connections to its rural surroundings through family and community landmarks. Genealogists will find the locations of Walker Cemetery and Fite Cemetery particularly useful for tracing local lineages. The map also documents modern infrastructure, such as the Panola County Airport and various reservoirs like Dixie Lake and Moore Lake, which mark the transition from the settled town center to the wooded bayous and creeks that characterize this East Texas region.
