2016 Map of Lafayette

About this map

The settlement of LaFayette sits at the intersection of local routes in the southern portion of this landscape, where the county line separates Upshur and Camp counties. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and ridges, including Massey Mtn, Adams Mtn, and Couch Mtn, which rise above the complex network of creeks and sloughs. To the north, Big Cypress Creek meanders along the border of Titus and Camp counties, surrounded by low-lying wetlands such as Burton Slough and Big Slough. This region exhibits a rural pattern of development, where family-named landmarks like Pat Miller Hill and Wilks Mtn provide orientation between small community centers. Genealogists may find value in the locations of Pleasant Grove Cem and Slaton Cem, which serve the populations around Lee Springs and the surrounding woodlands.
