2019 Map of Maud

About this map

Maud and Redwater anchor this Bowie County landscape, where the northern reaches of Wright Patman Lake meet the bottomlands of numerous creeks. The terrain is defined by the dendritic drainage of Milan Creek, Big Creek, and Kelley Creek, creating a complex shoreline that surrounds McFarland Island. This geography creates a distinct division between the higher ground of the settlements and the low-lying wetlands that border the Bowie and Cass County line. Local family history is preserved at sites like Ridge Cemetery and Harris Cemetery, while the rural infrastructure is marked by an extensive network of county roads such as Minton Road and Rogers Lane. The map illustrates the contemporary road patterns that follow older surveying lines, connecting these small Texas communities to the lake's edge.
