About this map

Sabine National Forest dominates this landscape on the border of Shelby, Sabine, and San Augustine counties, where the terrain shifts from the low drainages of Patroon Bayou and Patroon Creek to the high ground of Chinquapin Ridge and Forse Mountain. The settlement pattern reflects a deeply rooted rural community, anchored by crossroads like Sexton and Black Ankle and a network of family-linked sites. Researchers will find numerous small cemeteries and country churches, including Smith Cemetery, Crockett Cemetery, and New Jerusalem Ch, scattered along winding roads like Smith Cemetery Road. The complex hydrology of the region is evident in the dense branching of Lobanillo Creek and Mushotubba Creek, which historically dictated the placement of early homesteads and landmarks like Alexanders Store and Browns Chapel.
