2013 Map of Gainesville South

About this map

The Elm Fork Trinity River and its many tributaries, including Townsend Cr, Scott Cr, and Willow Cr, carve a complex drainage pattern across this Cooke County landscape. The area south of Gainesville is defined by a blend of academic, aviation, and rural elements, anchored by the N Central Texas Coll campus in the north. Transportation infrastructure is dominated by the north-south corridor of Interstate 35, which passes near Sarles Lake and the small settlement of Cook. Aviation enthusiasts and historians can identify local flight history through Freedom Field Airport and The 88 Airport. Further south, the map transition into a more quiet, agricultural terrain where the Valley View Cem sits near the banks of Spring Cr, providing a primary point of interest for genealogists tracing families in this part of North Texas.
