2016 Map of Kerens

About this map

The Trinity River defines the landscape of the Texas borderlands between Henderson and Navarro counties, winding through a complex network of wetlands and oxbows. Near Horseshoe Bend, the river is flanked by numerous water bodies like Round Lake and Singletary Lake, illustrating the shifting course of the waterway over time. To the south, the settlement of Kerens serves as a local hub, featuring the Kerens Cem and the Kerens City Lake, while the town of Trinidad sits further east along the riverbank. This 2016 survey captures the area during a period of modern residential growth, particularly in the community of Tool near the shores of Cedar Cr Reservoir. Researchers can trace the development of local infrastructure through named routes such as Morgan Springs Rd and a dense network of residential streets that now line the reservoir's edge, contrasting with the more rural, open terrain found near Samarie Cem.
