2022 Map of Middleton

About this map

Middleton and Spillerville anchor this part of East Texas, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Trinity River forming the boundary between Leon and Houston counties. The region is heavily marked by small family and community burial grounds, including the New Salem Cem, Holleman Cem, and Pleasant Grove Cem, which serve as vital landmarks for local genealogical research. Aviation history is noted by the presence of the Moore Ranch Airport located just south of Alabama Rd. The terrain is a complex network of creeks and hollows, such as Red Oak Hollow and Lower Keechi Cr, which drain into the river bottomlands. Numerous private and county roads, like Largent Heirs Family Rd, hint at the long-standing land ownership patterns that have shaped this rural corridor over decades.
