2012 Map of Forney North

About this map

Lake Ray Hubbard and the E Fork Trinity River anchor the western edge of this 2012 landscape, where suburban expansion meets the older rural geography of Kaufman and Rockwall counties. The map illustrates the growth of Forney in the south and Heath further north, showing how residential street networks like Lafayette Lndg and Moraine Way are filling in the spaces between established family landmarks. Genealogists can locate several historic burial sites, including Peck Cem, Kaiser Cem, and Chisholm Cem near McLendon. The presence of Thompson Slough and multiple named branches like Mustang Cr and Brushy Cr reveal the complex drainage patterns of the Blackland Prairie, as well as the transition from agricultural land to developed communities.
