About this map

Pilot Point and the town of Tioga anchor this North Texas landscape, where the vast waters of Ray Roberts Lake dominate the western terrain. The map details a rural infrastructure defined by numerous water control points, including the B and L Ranch Dam, Hammond Lake Dam, and Robert W Henzler Dam. These impoundments reflect the importance of water management for the ranching and agricultural operations that have long shaped Denton County.

Genealogists and local historians can locate long-standing landmarks such as Tioga Cemetery and Skinner Cemetery, as well as family-named thoroughfares like Emberson Chapel Rd and Jordan Moore Rd. The drainage patterns of Pecan Creek and Pierce Spring Branch further illustrate the topography of the region before it meets the shoreline of the reservoir. The combination of grid-based rural roads and natural creek lines provides a clear view of how modern developments and historic property lines coexist.
