2016 Map of Marietta

About this map

The Sulphur River forms the northern boundary of this Cass County landscape, where the border with Bowie County is defined by the river’s winding course. This area of northeast Texas is characterized by a dense network of tributaries including Caney Cr, Mill Cr, and Elliot Cr that feed into the larger river basin. Small rural hubs such as Marietta and Nickleberry serve as focal points for a community connected by Farm to Market roads and numerous county routes. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies several well-distributed burial grounds including Bethlehem Cem in the southeast and Creekmore Cem near Dalton. The proximity of settlements like Cornett and Bryans Mill to these waterways highlights the historical importance of the river drainage system in shaping the local geography and road network.
