About this map

Oakwood serves as the primary hub in this corner of Leon County, where a grid of streets like Walston St transitions into a network of rural roads such as River Bend Rd. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Trinity River and its associated oxbows and marshy lowlands, including Criminal Lake, Glaze Lake, and the Salt Water Slough. Small rural settlements and geographic markers like Sand Flats, Timesville, and Saint Paul dot the countryside, connected by farm-to-market roads and county routes.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Mount Pisgah Cemetery south of the main town, while the infrastructure of the era is represented by Carter Ranch Airport and the Gillian Lake Dam. The complex drainage system of the region is evident in the many named tributaries, such as Northwest Fork Boons Creek, Zuesco Creek, and Ringgold Creek, which carve through the terrain toward the river basin.
