About this map

Navarro Mills Lake dominates the eastern landscape of this North Texas region, where the prairie begins to transition into more complex riparian networks. Small rural communities like Pelham and Emmett anchor the local geography, surrounded by a dense distribution of family and community burial grounds including Salem Cem, Graham Cem, and Pelham Cem. The terrain is defined by a series of branching waterways such as Richland Cr, Ash Cr, and White Rock Cr that feed toward the reservoir.

A network of farm-to-market roads and county routes, such as Ranch Road 1946 and F.M. 308, connects the settlement at Irene with the outlying agricultural lands. This survey provides a clear view of the water management infrastructure in the early 21st century, notably the Soil Conservation Service Site 89 Reservoir and the various branches of Cottonwood Cr that drain the southwestern portion of the quadrangle.
