2016 Map of Percilla

About this map

Houston Mound and the small settlement of Mound City anchor the center of this landscape along the border of Anderson and Houston counties. This East Texas survey captures a network of rural roads and water bodies, including Ioni Lake and Ioni Marsh in the north and Grapeland Lake near the southern edge. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, identifying numerous family-associated burial sites and small landmarks such as Gulceville Cem, Brown Cem, and the uniquely labeled Eleck Turk Grave. The distribution of these features across the terrain near Percilla and Salmon reflects the region's enduring rural character and the importance of localized community identifiers. Waterways such as San Pedro Cr and Saddler Cr meander through the hills, providing a natural framework for the scattered homes and farms found in this 2016 record.
