About this map

Orange and its neighboring communities of West Orange and Pinehurst dominate this landscape along the Texas-Louisiana border. The town's connection to the water is central to its identity, with the Sabine River winding through the center of the sheet and the Intracoastal Waterway cutting through the southern marshlands. Industrial and maritime heritage is evident at Orange Harbor Island and the Berwick Cut, while local family history can be traced through several well-established burial grounds including Evergreen Cem, Hebrew Cem, and Hollywood Cem.

Wetlands and bayous define the eastern half of the map, where the border between Orange County and Calcasieu Parish follows the river's path. Named features like Phoenix Lake, Conway Bayou, and Sassafras Island illustrate the complex aquatic geography of the region. To the south, Perry Ridge stands as a distinct topographic feature amidst the sprawling marshlands of the Tupelo Swamp and Black Bayou.
