About this map

Sam Houston National Forest blankets this corner of East Texas, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways like Peach Creek and Turkey Creek. The landscape, captured in the late 1990s, reveals a rural fabric of dispersed timberlands and small local landmarks. Religious and community life is anchored by Salem Church to the north and the County Line Church and China Grove Church further south. These points of interest are connected by local thoroughfares such as Browder Traylor Road and Williams Road.

Resource extraction is evident through scattered oil wells, an Oil Sump, and numerous gravel pits throughout the woods. Genealogists and local historians will find the Hickory Grove Cemetery in the southwest quadrant, while the northern border is marked by the Atlantic Pipeline. The map provides a look at the boundary between San Jacinto and Montgomery counties as it follows the winding course of the creeks.
