About this map

Deep piney woods and creek bottoms define the rural landscape west of San Augustine in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of waterways including Big Iron Ore Creek, Venado Creek, and Hulse Creek, which drain the timber-heavy slopes toward the west. Settlement is scattered among small communities and agricultural clearings such as Ironosa, Redland, and Denning.

Social life in this corner of the county is anchored by local institutions like Harmony Ch and Union Ch, while the County Airport and a Roadside Park reflect the modernization of local infrastructure. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the exact placement of several unnamed Cem sites, providing a precise spatial record of family burial grounds and community hubs before further contemporary development.
