2019 Map of Rowlett

About this map

Rowlett and the surrounding suburban sprawl of northeast Dallas County are detailed in this modern survey, which tracks the extensive development between Rowlett Cr and Muddy Cr. The landscape is a dense network of residential streets and arterial roads, yet it preserves numerous historic touchstones in the form of local burial grounds. Genealogists can identify the Rowlett Cemetery, Garland Cem, Miles Cem, McShan Cem, and Pleasant Valley Cem, providing a clear record of family history amidst the rapid urbanization. The map illustrates the convergence of several communities, including Sachse, Wylie, and Murphy, along with the lakeside geography of Dalrock near the banks of Corder Lake. Older transit corridors like Old State Hwy 66 remain visible as they navigate the creeks and branches that historically shaped this region.
