2016 Map of Roxton

About this map

Roxton serves as the primary hub of this north Texas landscape, characterized by a grid of farm-to-market roads and a high density of rural burial grounds. The town itself is centered around several streets such as Market St and Sunset St, with its local history anchored by Restland Cem, Denton Cem, and Rockyford Cem. To the north and east, small agricultural settlements like Ambia and Howland are connected by roads like FM 1506 and FM 137, while the land is drained by a series of south-flowing waterways including Maxwell Cr and Mallory Cr. The area’s spiritual and social history is visible through landmarks like Gough Ch and Arkansas Ch. This documentation captures a stable rural environment where family-named cemeteries such as Rice Cem and Topping Cem serve as enduring markers of early Lamar County homesteads and lineages.
