About this map

Egypt and Spanish Camp anchor this section of Wharton County, characterized by a complex network of agricultural roads and drainage systems. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Lone Tree Cr and Peach Cr, which cut through the coastal prairie. Industrial activity is prominent in the form of the Egypt Oil Field and the Spanish Camp Oil Field, highlighting the region's long-standing connection to resource extraction.

For genealogists and local historians, several landmarks offer significant research value. The map identifies the Old Jerusalem Cem and Zion Cem, providing exact locations for family history research. Smaller settlements like Dorman are also visible, situated along the grid of farm-to-market roads and county routes such as FM 1161 RD and FM 102 RD. The presence of these named locations and cemeteries amidst the drainage basins of Clarks Br and W Bernard Cr creates a detailed portrait of this rural Texas community's geography.
