1984 Map of Ebenezer

About this map

Angelina National Forest covers the majority of this landscape in the mid-1980s, revealing a region defined by its timbered uplands and the significant impact of the Sam Rayburn Reservoir to the north. Smaller settlements such as Ebenezer and Harveytown anchor the central interior, while River Ridge and Zavala sit near the eastern boundary where the Angelina River meanders toward its confluence. The presence of an Old RR Grade south of River Ridge and a Gravel Pit near Ebenezer points to the area's historical reliance on transport and extraction. The complex drainage network, including Trout Creek and Sandy Creek, flows through the forest towards the Neches River in the southwest, illustrating the dense hydrological profile of this Jasper County territory.
