About this map

The Angelina National Forest dominates this landscape in East Texas, where the deep waters of the Sam Rayburn Reservoir meet the winding course of the Angelina River. This 2003 revision reveals a region defined by its timber and water resources, showing the established communities of Ebenezer and Harveytown set back from the reservoir's complex shoreline. The map records important genealogical landmarks, including Speir Cem near Plum Ridge and the Zavala (Historical Site) Cem to the south.

Evidence of the area's early Texas history is preserved at the Zavala (Historical Site), located near Branch. The transition from the northern reservoir to the southern Neches River bottomlands is marked by numerous water features like Jim Goode Lake and Devils Slough. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is visible through a network of forest roads and the prominent Pipeline corridor cutting across the wooded terrain.
