About this map

The Trinity River dominates this landscape as it meanders through East Texas, creating complex oxbows and secondary water bodies such as Horseshoe Bend, Round Lake, and Singletary Lake. To the north, the Bazette Oil Field indicates the region's industrial ties, while the southeastern corner is defined by the expansive Cedar Creek Reservoir. The town of Kerens serves as the primary settlement, with its grid of streets concentrated near Cemetery Creek and the Kerens Cemetery.

Further east, the smaller community of Samaria and the Samaria Cemetery provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. The area is intersected by numerous rural routes, including Oak Grove Rd and Old River Rd, which connect these settlements across a terrain carved by Humphries Creek and Cow Creek. The presence of the Kerens City Lake Dam near Kerens City Lake highlights local water management and infrastructure during this period.
