2010 Map of Cross Roads

About this map

The settlement of Cross Roads serves as a central junction in this Henderson County landscape, where the local road network connects rural homesteads and family burial grounds. Local history is anchored by several distinct sites, including Willow Springs Cemetery, Post Oak Cemetery, Patterson Cemetery, and Union Cemetery, which document the generations settled along the various creek branches. The terrain is defined by a heavy concentration of managed water resources, including Nichols Lake, White Lake, and Catfish Lake, often created by private dams such as the Perryman Lake Dam and Jonsson Lake Dam. Industrial activity is evident in the southwest near the Cayuga Oil Field, illustrating the area's reliance on natural resource extraction alongside its agricultural character. Small residential clusters like Shady Oaks and Bass Haven Lake appear near the northern and eastern borders, reflecting the development of lakeside communities.
