2013 Map of Gilmer

About this map

Gilmer serves as the focal point of this East Texas survey, showing a well-established street grid and residential development near the center of Upshur County. The landscape is defined by several low-lying peaks, including Underwood Mtn, Simpson Mtn, and McDonald Mtn, which rise above the surrounding creek drainages. To the south, aviation facilities at Fox Stephens Field - Gilmer Municipal Airport occupy the level ground between Brooks Cr and the neighborhood of Piedmont. Local history is preserved in sites like the Reynolds Cem near Tidwell Mtn and the community surrounding Mings Chapel. The map reveals a complex network of waterways, including Stillhouse Cr and Clear Cr, alongside small-scale agriculture and rural settlements like Pattonfield and Enoch. Modern infrastructure is visible through the systematic naming of roads such as Cherokee Trce and Old Coffeeville Rd.
