2022 Map of Crecy

About this map

The Davy Crockett National Forest dominates this section of Trinity County, where the small settlements of Crecy and Centerville anchor a landscape defined by an intricate network of creeks and timberland. The map provides clear evidence of the area's rural heritage through numerous family-named roads and landmarks, such as Terry Ingram Bottom and Rex Bailey Rd. Genealogists will find particular value in the placement of the Moore Cem, McLain Cem, and Bennett Cem, which are tucked away near the headwaters of Black Lake Creek and South Fork Cedar Creek. The drainage patterns of Mossy Creek and Piney Creek illustrate the low-lying, well-watered geography typical of the East Texas piney woods, where local life follows the contours of the many creek branches.
