2016 Map of Ethel

About this map

Ethel and Gunter serve as the primary hubs of this North Texas landscape, where a dense network of country roads connects family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds. The territory is defined by its complex drainage systems, with Little Elm Cr and Range Cr cutting through the terrain towards significant water bodies like Touchstone Lake and Gressett Lake. For those tracing local history, the map preserves the locations of Walthall Cem, Ethel Cem, and Macomb Cem, often situated near older road alignments like Macomb Cemetery Rd. The rural character is punctuated by the Flying S Ranch Airport, while the grid-like progression of rural routes such as FM 902 E and Southmayd Rd illustrates the transition from traditional ranching lands to contemporary rural development.
