About this map

Rosston and Greenwood anchor this North Texas landscape, where the drainage networks of the Red River basin define the local geography. The map documents an area deeply integrated with water management, evidenced by the numerous Soil Conservation Service dams scattered throughout the terrain, such as Soil Conservation Service Site 34 Dam and Soil Conservation Service Site 31 Dam. These structures are situated along winding waterways like Clear Creek and Fannin Creek, reflecting twentieth-century efforts to stabilize the soil and control runoff in this rural expanse.

Local history is preserved in small settlements such as Leo and Prairie Point, alongside the Bewley Cemetery located north of Rosston. The road network, including FM-455 and FM-922, connects these dispersed communities across a landscape of creeks and hollows, including Cove Hollow. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and land use patterns at the beginning of the twenty-first century.
