About this map

Kirvin sits at the southern edge of this East Texas landscape, where local life is tied to a network of creeks and small family cemeteries. The terrain is defined by the branching waters of Tehuacana Cr and Little Tehuacana Cr, which carve through the countryside north and west of the settlement. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the locations of several burial sites, including Webb Branch Cem, Woodland Cem, and Session Cem, providing a spatial record of the area's rural heritage.

Transportation corridors dominate the eastern half of the sheet, with Interstate 45 cutting a diagonal path alongside older routes like Ranch Road 80. This infrastructure exists in contrast to the numerous small water bodies, such as Streetman Lake and Loper Lake, which punctuate the landscape. The map captures a transition point where modern transit meets the established drainage patterns of Cedar Cr and Dry Cr.
