2016 Map of Loving

About this map

Loving and Jean anchor this northeast corner of Young County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of ranch roads and winding seasonal drainages. The topography is marked by the presence of Newman Lake and Clayton Lake, which supplement the natural flow of Brushy Cr and Little Salt Cr. This region of North Texas maintains a traditional rural character, evidenced by family-named landmarks and long-established transit routes such as Garvey Ranch Rd and Sam Hawkins Rd. For genealogists and local historians, the map provides clear locations for Loving Cem and Hawkins Chapel Cem, situated along Hawkins Chapel Rd. The road network, including numerous farm-to-market routes like FM 1768 and FM 1769, reveals the connectivity between isolated homesteads and the small township centers in the early 21st century.
