About this map

Wright Patman Lake dominates the southern portion of this Bowie County landscape, where the waters of Thomas Cr and Panther Cr meet the inundated lowlands. The region is characterized by a high concentration of small family and community burial grounds, providing a vital resource for genealogical research in east Texas. Small settlements like Corley and Carbondale are situated along the central transit corridor, while the community of Old Union serves as a northern anchor. The terrain rises to the White Oak Ridge, overlooking a complex network of wetlands and creek branches such as Rice Cr and Big Br. Aviation history is represented by the Ashford Field Airport near Ashford Lake, highlighting the area's mix of rural infrastructure and significant water resources.
