2019 Map of Fred

About this map

The settlement of Fred sits at the junction of several rural routes in Tyler County, serving as a primary point of human activity in this wooded pocket of East Texas. The landscape is heavily defined by its drainage patterns, with numerous named branches and creeks including Beech Cr, Franks Br, and Nixon Br winding through the terrain. A clear administrative boundary separates Tyler and Hardin Counties, crossing just north of the Big Thicket National Preserve. This protected area along the southern edge of the map encompasses low-lying features like Maple Slough and Mill Cr. The local infrastructure is marked by a dense network of county roads and the presence of the community Po, reflecting a landscape of timber-rich forests and scattered homesteads characteristic of the Piney Woods region.
