2013 Map of Marysville

About this map

The Red River snakes along the northern border of Cooke County, carving dramatic features like Tyas Bend and Warrens Bend into the landscape. This area of North Texas is defined by a dense network of seasonal creeks and hollows, including Birchum Hollow, Opossum Hollow, and Black Hollow, which drain toward the larger Hubert M Moss Lake in the southeast. The small settlement of Marysville sits near the center of the sheet, while Jimtown occupies the northwestern corner near the river. For those researching local families, several small burial grounds are documented, such as Jimtown Cem, Barlow Cem, Weaver Cem, and Bear Head Cem. The map reveals a transition from the river bottomlands to the higher elevations of Nubbin Ridge and Three Mounds, illustrating how the local road network follows the winding topography of the northern Texas prairie.
