2010 Map of Jasper West

About this map

Jasper serves as the focal point of this East Texas survey, where the city's western edge meets a landscape defined by an intricate network of creeks and numerous rural burial grounds. The settlement of Curtis sits along the roadway north of Sandy Creek, marking a transition from the developing town outskirts to more secluded timber and pasture lands. This map is particularly dense with genealogical markers, documenting over a dozen named cemeteries including Watts-Fuller Cemetery, Gilgal Cemetery, and the poignantly named Little Hope Cemetery. Water management and recreation are evident through features like Morgan-Lindsey Lakes and Pattons Pond, while the Jasper County-Bell Field indicates the region's mid-century aviation infrastructure. The drainage patterns of Trotti Creek and Indian Creek illustrate the natural topography that has long shaped movement and land use in this part of the Piney Woods.
