2010 Map of Harleton

About this map

Harleton sits at the center of this Harrison County landscape, serving as a hub for a network of country roads like FM 450 and FM 2208. The northern reaches of the area are dominated by the waters of Lake O' the Pines, held back by the Ferrells Bridge Dam. This shoreline is dotted with recreation spots such as the Brushy Creek Campground, while the interior landscape reflects a balance of local industry and quiet community life. The presence of the Whelan Gas Field highlights the region's energy resources, contrasting with the many family and community burial grounds that define the local genealogy, including Eagle Creek Cemetery and Piney Cemetery. Further south, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the Little Cypress Bayou and its many tributaries like Moccasin Creek, illustrating the natural drainage patterns that have shaped land use and settlement since the earliest residents arrived in communities like Jackson and Macedonia.
