About this map

Holly Springs and the surrounding piney woods of East Texas are defined by a complex network of small creek branches and soil conservation projects. This 2010 landscape is shaped significantly by water management, featuring the Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir in the north and the Soil Conservation Service Site 20 Reservoir near the center. These reservoirs, alongside Ford Lake and McKinney Lake, illustrate the region's efforts to control erosion and manage the flow of the many tributaries feeding into Naconiche Creek.

Smaller settlements and rural communities like Arlam, Fitze, and Whispering Pines are connected by a web of farm-to-market roads and county lanes. The map provides significant value for genealogists and local historians, documenting scattered landmarks such as Nalls Cemetery, Strickland Cemetery, and Galilee Cemetery. In the western portion, the terrain rises at Elbow Ridge, overlooking the winding paths of Telesco Creek and Cedar Branch.
