1973 Map of Reklaw
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
The Southern Pacific railroad line cuts a diagonal path through this East Texas landscape, connecting the rural communities of Reklaw and Sacul during the early 1970s. The terrain is defined by the complex hydrology of the Angelina River and its numerous tributaries, including the East Fork Angelina River and the winding Mud Creek. This area, straddling the borders of Cherokee, Rusk, and Nacogdoches Counties, reveals a pattern of dispersed settlement and agricultural land punctuated by family-named landmarks like Beard Mtn and Pine Island. Local genealogy is well-represented through several sites of interment, such as Looney Cem, Ward Cem, and Martin Cem. The map also documents the industrial infrastructure of the era, with various pipelines and a Gas Well situated near the southern reach of Atoy Creek.
