2010 Map of Leon North

About this map

Red River currents define the southern boundary of this Love County landscape, carving a deep loop known as Illinois Bend. This riverine environment is shaped by numerous tributaries including Mud Creek, Red Oak Creek, and Coffeepot Creek, creating a complex network of drainage and low-lying land. The small settlement of Leon anchors the southern portion of the sheet near the river, while the community of Rubottom sits further north along a crossroads of local routes. For genealogists and family historians, the map provides precise locations for Courtney Cemetery and Murrell Cemetery, which serve as long-standing markers of the area's rural history. This period of the early 21st century shows a landscape dominated by ranching and small-scale water management, evidenced by features like the James Dula Pond Dam.
