About this map

The rolling landscape of southern Dallas County and northern Ellis County is defined here by the rapid suburban expansion of the 1990s. While established municipal centers like Duncanville and Cedar Hill expand toward their corporate boundaries, the map preserves older rural markers and spiritual sites. Religious and social history is grounded in the Shiloh Cumberland Church and the adjacent Shiloh Cemetery, located near the southeastern corner where Red Oak Creek meanders.

Infrastructure like the At & Sf railroad and major thoroughfares such as Belt Line Road cross the terrain, supporting the growth of residential enclaves like Kingswood and Cedarview. Along the western edge, the presence of Cedar Hill State Park and Joe Pool Lake highlights the era's balance between development and preserved recreational space. Further south, the map reveals the industrial activity around Midlothian, including a large Quarry and various communication towers that mark the rising elevation.
