About this map

Maydelle sits at the center of this East Texas survey, marking a pocket of settlement near the Cherokee Co and Anderson Co line. The terrain is defined by its drainage systems, with One Arm Creek and Tailes Creek cutting through the countryside south of the community. To the north, Ghent Mountain rises as a distinct landmark amid a network of county roads.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial grounds throughout this rural landscape, reflecting generations of local families. These include Berge Cemetery in the north and the cluster of Mt Hope and Mount Hope Cemetery to the southeast. The distribution of these sites, alongside Mount Comfort Cemetery and Holly Springs Cemetery, suggests a dispersed pattern of early development tied to the region's creeks and small timber-fringed hills.
