About this map

Lake Corsicana dominates the central landscape of this 2012 study, its fingers reaching into the surrounding Navarro County countryside. To the north, the small settlement of Powell sits along the rail line, while Elm Flat and Eureka anchor the eastern and southern portions of the quadrangle. The area retains a rural character defined by a dense network of county roads like Se 0080 RD and Se 0120 RD that connect scattered homesteads and local landmarks.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented, including Woods Cem, Elm Flat Cem, Providence Cem, and Eureka Cem. The map also highlights local infrastructure such as the JTJ Ranch Airport and recreational sites like Camp Wanica along the shores of Cedar Cr. A complex system of waterways, including Chambers Cr, Little Rush Cr, and Crab Cr, feeds into the reservoir, illustrating the local drainage patterns that shaped the placement of early communities and modern developments alike.
