About this map

Magasco and the rural roads of Sabine County define this East Texas landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The terrain is a network of bayous and creeks, with Housen Bayou winding through the center and carving out the landmark Housen Holw. This survey documents a region where local water resources were heavily managed for industry or recreation, evidenced by Magasco Lake and its corresponding Magasco Lake Dam, along with Temple-Eastex Lake B-2.

Genealogists and local historians can locate Whitehead Cemetery near the southern boundary, situated between Little Sandy Creek and Pomponaugh Creek. The map preserves the location of Strickland Crossing at a key junction of timber-country roads like W Strickland Xing and Farm-To-Market Road 2024. The extensive network of Forest Service roads, such as FS 152 Rd, illustrates the ongoing importance of the surrounding woodlands to the local economy and infrastructure.
