About this map

Plantersville and the surrounding woodlands of southeast Texas are defined by a network of creeks and small settlements straddling the Grimes and Montgomery county line. This 2016 survey documents a landscape of mixed rural residential growth and traditional crossroads, including the unique enclave of Todd Mission and the neighboring community of Todd. The terrain is drained by numerous waterways such as Caney Cr, Hurricane Cr, and Mill Cr, which cut through the sandy soils of the region.

Local history is preserved in several small burial grounds scattered across the quadrangle, notably Shannon Cem, Rose Hill Cem, and Griffith Cem. The map illustrates the persistent importance of early transportation corridors, from Old Hwy 105 W and FM 1774 to local landmarks like Post Office Rd and Town Hall Rd. Named water bodies such as Sneed Lake and Lake Hollyhill provide focal points for these growing communities.
