About this map

The settlement of Poetry sits in the northwest corner of this landscape, marking a rural community near the Hunt Co Kaufman Co boundary. The terrain is defined by a network of creeks, including Dry Creek, Greasy Creek, and Walnut Creek, which drain toward the South Fork Sabine River. Significant water management features are evident through the presence of an Aqueduct and multiple pipelines traversing the countryside, alongside the New Terrell City Lake and the Lake Tawakoni (Kitsee Inlet). For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed, showing several burial grounds such as Henderson-Mosley Cem, Highland Memorial Gardens, and Weaver Cem. Traces of earlier infrastructure appear in the form of an Old Grade Railroad, while the local economy of the late 1970s is reflected by scattered gas wells and a Radio Facility.
