About this map

Rayburn and the neighboring settlements of Dolen and Hightower define the inhabited landscape of this region along the San Jacinto and Liberty County line. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of water bodies and marshes, including the expansive Winters Bayou and the winding Trinity River on the eastern edge. Local history is anchored by sites like the Coley Creek Cem and natural landmarks such as Cain Ridge and Grama Grass Bottom.

Transportation and recreation are visible through the presence of the Lake Water Wheel Airport and several private or managed lakes like Lake Run-A-Muck, Lake Tejas, and the Water Wheels Lake Number 1 and Water Wheels Lake Number 2 system. The map reveals a transition between organized development and the wet lowlands of Marsh Br and Brijants Marsh, offering a detailed view of East Texas geography before recent shifts in land use.
