2010 Map of Pottsboro

About this map

Pottsboro serves as the inland anchor for a landscape defined by the expansive waters of Lake Texoma and the winding course of the Red River. The geography is characterized by prominent landforms such as the Preston Peninsula and Grandpappy Point, alongside numerous islands including North Island and Treasure Island. This map illustrates the intersection of recreation and local transit, featuring a high concentration of regional aviation sites like Hitex Airport, Tanglewood Airfield, and the Grandpappy Point Landing Strip. The presence of Henderson Ferry on the Red River highlights the historic water-based connectivity between Texas and Oklahoma. Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial sites including Lake Cemetery, Georgetown Cemetery, and Hagerman Cemetery, providing a spatial record of the area's older settlements like Lark, Willow Spring, and Cambridge. The complex shoreline is further fragmented by drainage points such as Little Mineral Arm and the Russell Dam.
