About this map

Oil Springs and the surrounding piney woods of East Texas appear here as they were in the first decade of the 21st century. The landscape is defined by the northern reaches of the Sam Rayburn Reservoir, where the Angelina River feeds into the basin near Big Island. This area in Nacogdoches County reflects a mix of timber history and modern recreation, with the Etoile Park Campground situated near the settlement of Etoile.

A network of creeks, including Moss Creek and Morton Creek, drain through the terrain toward the reservoir. Local genealogy is anchored by sites such as Pine Knot Cemetery and Miley Cemetery, while place names like Suttons Mill and New Camp hint at the region's industrial and residential development over time. The map provides an essential view of the local road system, from FM-226 to numerous numbered county routes that connect these dispersed rural communities.
