2010 Map of Patroon South

About this map

Patroon anchors the northwest corner of this deep East Texas landscape, where a network of bayous and creeks defines the local geography. The area's history is preserved in a significant number of family and community burial grounds, including Windham Cemetery, Crockett Cemetery, Sweet Cemetery, and Bickley Cemetery, which are scattered throughout the timbered terrain. Topographical relief is provided by Matlock Hills and Forse Mountain, while commerce is centered at Alexanders Store and the settlement of Sexton. The map details a complex system of forestry roads, such as US Forestry Road 139 and US Hwy Forest Road 131, illustrating the area's continued reliance on the surrounding woods. Waterways like Patroon Bayou, Colorow Creek, and El Lobanillo Creek weave through the township, reflecting the drainage patterns of the Sabine River basin.
