About this map

The Sabine River snakes through this landscape between Longview and Kilgore, defining a region shaped by industry and the corridor of Interstate 20. The map reveals the connective tissue between these two East Texas cities, including smaller settlements like Kinsloe, Danville, and Fredonia. For genealogists and local historians, several burial grounds are documented, such as Utzman Cem, Wilkerson Cem, and Grable Cem, which sit alongside established residential areas like Rolling Meadows.

Hydrological features are prominent throughout the quadrangle, from the Low Head-Weir Reservoir on Hawkins Cr to the wetlands surrounding Mud Lake and Moss Lake. The southern portion of the sheet highlights the aviation and infrastructure central to the local economy, anchored by the Kilgore Airport. This 2016 survey captures the area's transition from the river bottomlands to the developed suburbs and industrial zones that bridge the gap between the two regional centers.
