2013 Map of Neches

About this map

The Neches River winds through the heart of this East Texas landscape, defining a wetland corridor of oxbows and bottomlands including Horseshoe Lake, Alligator Lake, and Dead Water Lake. The settlement of Neches sits in the northwest corner near Daly Mtn, while further south, the communities of Jarvis and Herring are positioned along the primary east-west road corridor. Genealogists will find the Caldwell Cem and White Oak Cem located near the junction of White Oak Cr and Turtle Slough. The topography is marked by several prominent rises such as Flint Hill and White Mtn, contrasting with the intricate network of tributaries like Hurricane Cr and Beech Cr that drain toward the main river channel.
