2016 Map of Northeast Palestine

About this map

Palestine anchor the southwestern corner of this landscape, where the urban grid gives way to a dense network of water bodies and rural cemeteries in Anderson County. The area is defined by its diverse hydrology, including the winding course of Wells Creek and larger impoundments like Lost Prairie Lake and Haverlah Lake. This topography suggests a land utilized for recreation and small-scale agriculture, as numerous family and community burial sites are scattered throughout the countryside. Genealogists can trace historical burial grounds such as Pine Ridge Cem and Lumpkin Cem in the north, while the southern reaches feature more contemporary memorial sites like Roselawn Park Cem. The small settlement of Neches stands in the northeast, connected to the county seat by a system of country roads and state highways that bridge the many small tributaries of Mound Prairie Cr and Hurricane Cr.
