About this map

Naples and neighboring Omaha serve as the primary hubs in this corner of Northeast Texas, connected by the St Louis Southwestern RR. The landscape is a mixture of woodland and agricultural clearings, defined by a dense network of cemeteries and rural churches that speak to the deep-rooted community history of the region. Notable landmarks include the Greater Morris County Airport to the south and the sprawling Wright Patman Lake along the northern boundary.

Genealogical researchers will find a significant concentration of family-named sites, such as the Heard, Milner, and Wheatville cemeteries. Educational history is preserved through the locations of the Pewitt Sch and Carver High Sch. Further south, the map details the winding courses of Watson Creek and Okru Creek, alongside smaller water bodies like Glass Club Lake, illustrating the drainage patterns that shaped the placement of early settlements and roads.
