2012 Map of Forney South

About this map

Forney and Crandall serve as the primary anchors of this 2012 survey, illustrating the continued suburban expansion in Kaufman County. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Mustang Creek and Buffalo Creek, which feed into the East Fork Trinity River in the southwest corner. Local aviation history is represented by three distinct facilities: Smith Field Airport, Sunset Airport, and Bennetts Airport. Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites preserved amidst the residential development, including Shipley Cemetery, Blackland Cemetery, and Prairie View Cemetery. The terrain rises to the Irish Ridge east of Markout, while water management is evidenced by a series of flood control structures such as Lower East Fork Lateral Site Number One and Lateral Site Number Four.
