2012 Map of Geneva

About this map

Palo Gaucho Bayou winds through the heart of this East Texas landscape, which is characterized by a dense network of family cemeteries and historic crossroads. The map documents the rural settlement of Geneva and the surrounding woodlands where numerous creeks, including Tiger Cr, Tebo Cr, and Boregas Cr, drain toward the bayou system. The abundance of burial sites, such as McMahon's Chapel Cem and Meador-Judson Meador Cem, reflects a deeply rooted local genealogy and a pattern of dispersed community centers. Elevated terrain like Rosin Ridge rises above the watercourses of Beech Cr and Sulphur Cr, illustrating the subtle topography of Sabine County. This record captures the intricate system of local lanes and farm-to-market roads, such as Lick Skillet Rd and W Carters Ferry Rd, that connect these historic settlements.
