About this map

Lovelady serves as the primary settlement hub at the northern edge of this 2016 Houston County survey, where Commerce St and Gimon Ln define the local grid. The landscape south of town is a network of rural routes and watercourses, including the meandering Tantabogue Cr and Elm Cr. Genealogy researchers will find several well-preserved burial grounds, such as Huffman Cem, Clapp Cem, and the White Rock Cem near the eastern boundary.

A notable landmark, the Old Iron Bridge, crosses Cedar Cr in the northwest, representing a tangible link to the area's older transportation infrastructure. The map also delineates the complex county lines where Houston, Trinity, and Walker counties converge. The presence of Ellis Spring and numerous family-named roads like Oates Brothers Rd and McManner Rd highlights the long-standing agricultural and residential patterns of this East Texas region.
