About this map

The Brazos River carves a winding path through this North Texas landscape, defining the boundaries where Young, Stephens, and Palo Pinto counties meet. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the northern reaches of Possum Kingdom Lake, including the designated recreation areas of Possum Kingdom State Park. The shoreline here is deeply indented by numerous inlets such as Fox Hollow Cr and Maloney Cr, reflecting the complex topography created by the river's historical meanders.

Away from the water, the terrain rises toward Caudill Mtn, while small ranching and residential enclaves like Sandy Beach and Salem Bend dot the countryside. Genealogists will find interest in the documented locations of Mountain Home Cem and Ming Bend Cem, situated near old routes like Ming Bend Rd and Oil City Rd. The map illustrates a modern rural landscape where traditional ranching landmarks like Whitenburg Ranch coexist with contemporary lakefront development.
