2016 Map of Hurricane Creek

About this map

The Sabine National Forest dominates this East Texas landscape, where the boundary between Sabine and Newton counties is traced across a network of creeks and timberland. In the northeastern corner, the Toledo Bend Reservoir meets the shoreline near Conner Creek, marking a significant water feature for the region. The map reveals a high density of family burial sites, reflecting the deep-rooted genealogical history of the area. These include the Wilkerson Family Cem, Deas-Mason-Smith Cem, and Anderson Bowie Cem, which are scattered among the forest service roads and local routes like Clarktown Rd. The topography is defined by the drainages of Hurricane Creek and its seasonal counterparts, Dry Hurricane Creek and Wet Hurricane Creek, while the private Scrappin Valley Airport and Scrappin Valley Lake sit in the southern reaches of the quadrangle.
