2013 Map of Pike

About this map

Pike and the surrounding rural landscape of Fannin County are defined by a complex network of creeks that once shaped the settlement of this north Texas region. Small communities such as Nobility, Delba, and Frognot are connected by a grid of county roads, punctuated by ancestral burial grounds like Indian Creek Cem and Fuller Cem. The map reveals a land heavily utilized for agriculture, where drainage is managed through countless unnamed farm ponds and major watercourses like Indian Creek and Bear Cr. To the south, Arnold and the neighborhood of Lane sit near the confluence of Arnold Cr and Elm Cr. Notable landmarks such as Rockys Place Airport highlight the modern transition of the landscape, while the numerous family-named cemeteries, including Du Laney Cem and Bethlehem Cem, provide critical points of reference for genealogists tracing early families in the area.
