About this map

Small rural communities and a dense network of family cemeteries define this portion of Montgomery County, where the southern reaches of Lake Conroe meet the winding path of Lake Creek. The settlement of Keenan serves as a local anchor, situated near several smaller population centers like Karen, Gary, and Montgomery Siding. The landscape is heavily dotted with private and community burial grounds, including the Womack Cemetery, Yell Cemetery, and the Rabon Cartwright Cemetery, providing significant points of interest for genealogical research in East Texas.

Water management is prominent across the terrain, evidenced by numerous named reservoirs and dams such as Mitchell Lake, Johnson Lake, and the tiered Lago Del Bosque-Upper Lake system. These impoundments, along with tributaries like Mound Creek and Landrum Creek, illustrate how the local geography has been modified for residential and agricultural use. Modern development is visible through the expansion of roads like FM 2854 and named residential drives, even as the map preserves the locations of older landmarks like the Keenan Cemetery.
