2016 Map of Monticello

About this map

Lake Bob Sandlin and the Monticello Reservoir dominate this landscape on the border of Titus and Camp Counties, illustrating the 21st-century management of water resources in Northeast Texas. The map highlights the rural settlement patterns around Monticello and Blodgett, where small communities are connected by a network of farm-to-market roads like FM 127 and FM 2882. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Rocky Mound stands as a focal point for local history researchers and genealogists, situated near several watercourses including Picket Spring Br and Walkers Cr. The presence of the Brantley Cem west of Blodgett provides a specific point of interest for family history, while the complex shorelines of Lake Monticello reflect the area's transition from traditional agricultural land to a more reservoir-centered geography.
