2016 Map of Fostoria

About this map

Sam Houston National Forest dominates the northwest corner of this landscape, where the headwaters of Peach Cr and Duck Cr weave through the timberlands of East Texas. The map illustrates the convergence of three counties—San Jacinto, Montgomery, and Liberty—anchored by the settlements of Fostoria and Splendora. Historically a region defined by its timber resources, the survey shows a network of rural routes like Old Hwy 105 E and Morgan Cemetery Rd connecting small community centers. Genealogists can identify several local burial sites, including Security Cem near Security and the Pin Oak Cem to the east. Water features like Chapman Ponds, Big Pond, and Horse Marsh punctuate the low-lying terrain between the growing areas of Cleveland and North Cleveland.
