About this map

Dalby Springs sits at the northern edge of this Bowie County landscape, where the terrain is defined by the complex hydrology of the Sulphur River and its numerous tributaries. The area is a dense network of bottomlands and water bodies, including White Oak Creek, Molly Clark Slough, and Village Creek. These waterways feed several named lakes such as Black Cat Lake, Shaw Lake, and Pine Lake, reflecting a region deeply tied to its river-basin geography.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established landmarks like the Roberts Cemetery and Lumpkin Cemetery, which provide important anchors for family history research. The presence of the Broseco Ranch and its associated infrastructure, including the Broseco Dam Number 1 and Deer Pasture Dam, highlights the 21st-century agricultural and water management practices in this part of Northeast Texas. The map also traces various rural routes, such as FM 71 and Barrett Rd, connecting these scattered settlements and natural features.
