2016 Map of Crecy

About this map

Davy Crockett National Forest dominates much of this Trinity County landscape, where the small communities of Crecy and Centerville are linked by a network of winding county roads and forest routes. This 2016 survey illustrates the persistent rural character of eastern Texas, centered around the drainage basins of Piney Cr and Alabama Cr. Genealogists will find several family-named landmarks and resting places, including Moore Cem, McLain Cem, and Bennett Cem, which are scattered throughout the wooded terrain. The topography is defined by low-lying floodplains like Terry Ingram Bottom and a dense web of smaller tributaries such as Mossy Cr and Scrub Cr. The map's road network, featuring names like Rex Bailey Rd and Chic Watson Rd, provides a modern look at property access and land use within the national forest boundaries.
