About this map

Paris sits at the heart of this North Texas landscape, framed by a complete loop of modern highway infrastructure. The city's grid is remarkably defined, extending outward from the historic center toward the outlying communities of Reno and Givens to the east. Water systems play a significant role in the local geography, with Lake Crook dominating the northern horizon and numerous tributaries like Crooked Creek and Pine Cr draining the surrounding plains.

Genealogists will find this 2019 survey particularly valuable for its clear marking of local resting places, including the large Evergreen Cemetery south of the city center, Restlawn Cemetery to the north, and Cedar Hill Cemetery on the western outskirts. The transition from the dense urban streets of the county seat to the agricultural drainage basins of Big Sandy Creek and Cottonwood Branch illustrates the modern spatial organization of Lamar County.
