2010 Map of Lake Nacogdoches South

About this map

Lake Nacogdoches dominates the northern landscape, its southern reaches held by the Loco Dam near the community of Eden. This rural Texas corridor is defined by the winding course of Bayou Loco as it travels south toward the Angelina River, which snakes through the southwest corner of the map along its Old River Channel. The settlement patterns here reflect a long-standing agricultural and community network, evidenced by the presence of local centers like Alazan and Harmony. Genealogy researchers will find several localized landmarks preserved in the record, including the Eden School and Alazan School, alongside the Eden Cemetery and Watson Cemetery. The map also captures several smaller private water bodies, such as Tank Johnson Lake and Alazan Lake, each managed by its respective dam, illustrating the local importance of water management and land ownership in Nacogdoches County.
