2012 Map of Improve

About this map

Improve and its surrounding rural communities in Lamar County are defined by a network of small family cemeteries and the industrial presence of the Improve Oil Field. The landscape is etched with numerous creek systems, including Upper Little Cr, Beaver Dam Cr, and Gully Cr, which flow through the pine-dotted terrain. This survey reflects a persistent rural pattern of settlement where life centers around local landmarks like the Improve Lookout Tower and a high density of burial grounds such as Enon Cem and Baylis Chapel Cem. The southeastern portion of the map identifies the community of Rocky Branch, situated near the confluence of Buckhalter Mill Cr and Hartfield Mill Cr, providing a detailed look at the region's hydrography and small-scale land divisions in the early twenty-first century.
