2010 Map of Como

About this map

The town of Como serves as a central hub for this portion of Hopkins County, where the local road network converges near the railroad corridor. Moving eastward, the landscape transitions toward Pickton and the smaller community of Bethel, illustrating the persistent small-town settlement patterns of East Texas. The map records several vital historical sites for genealogists, including Woodland Cemetery, Coffee Cemetery, and New Pickton Cemetery, which are tucked away among the rural county roads. Drainage is dominated by the winding paths of Richland Creek and East Caney Creek, with several water control structures such as Gamblin Lake Dam influencing the local topography. This 2010 survey provides a clear view of the area just before significant modern shifts in rural infrastructure, preserving the locations of outlying settlements like Pine Forest and its associated road network.
