2003 Map of San Augustine East

About this map

San Augustine anchors the southwestern portion of this East Texas terrain, where the managed timberlands of the Sabine National Forest dominate the eastern landscape. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Ayish Bayou and Palo Gacho Creek, which have historically shaped the settlement patterns of San Augustine County. Local genealogists will find a wealth of family history landmarks, from the Whitton Cem in the north to the Chumley Cem and Pickard Cem in the south. The map reflects a rural community rooted in small settlements like White Rock, Hawthorne, and Sunrise, alongside infrastructure such as the San Augustine City Lake and its associated Boat Ramp. This survey provides a clear view of the interface between urban growth and protected forest lands at the start of the 21st century.
