About this map

B A Steinhagen Lake dominates the southern landscape of this 2010 survey, where the convergence of the Neches River and the Angelina-River creates a complex network of backwaters and sloughs. The area is defined by its riparian geography, featuring numerous family-named landmarks and landforms such as Frank Camp Ridge, Johnson Flats, and Little Pine Island. Several smaller water bodies like Barrow Lake, Tub Lake, and Lingo Lake dot the terrain, while the Jasper State Fish Hatchery stands as a notable facility near the eastern boundary.

Local history is preserved through scattered burial grounds including Farrell Cemetery, Rawls Cemetery, and Seale Cemetery. These sites, along with small settlements like Fox Landing, Smith Ferry, and Bevilport, indicate a legacy of river-based travel and settlement. The intricate drainage patterns of Devils Slough and Johns Branch highlight the wet, low-lying character of this East Texas river bottom environment as it appeared at the start of the 21st century.
