About this map

Jacksonville serves as the primary hub of this 2019 survey, showing the city's residential and commercial growth across Cherokee County. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawling waters of Lake Jacksonville, featuring distinct points such as Oak Point and Piney Point. The landscape is a mix of small settlements and rugged terrain, with landmarks like Luker Mtn and Casey Mtn rising above the creek systems. Several historical burial sites, including Ragsdale Cem, Miles Cem, and Pleasant View Cem, provide essential data for genealogical research in these rural Texas communities.

Transportation corridors like FM 747 connect the city to outlying locales such as Hume, New Hope, and Ironton. The map details various water bodies, including Lake Acker, Dublin Lake, and the winding Sixmile Cr, which define the local drainage patterns. This modern topographic record is an excellent resource for understanding how late-20th-century developments have integrated with the area's older rural framework.
