2016 Map of Mount Herman

About this map

The Attoyac River basin defines the southern border of this East Texas terrain, where the boundaries of Shelby, San Augustine, and Nacogdoches Counties converge. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling waters of Pinkston Reservoir, which feeds into Sandy Cr and West Cr. Settlement is concentrated around the rural crossroads of Aiken and Mount Herman, with the residential area of Northshore overlooking the reservoir's eastern banks. Genealogists will find the locations of Sardis Cem and Lucas Cem preserved in the rolling woodlands, while numerous creeks like Little Iron Ore Cr and Bog Cr carve through the timbered hills. The map provides a detailed view of the local road network, including Rocky Mountain Rd and various forest routes that have long supported the region's timber and agricultural interests.
