2010 Map of Schwab City

About this map

The Trinity River meanders through this landscape in Polk County, defining the local geography and historical settlement patterns at Drews Landing and Ace. This 2010 survey illustrates a region where timber and petroleum industries have long intersected, evidenced by the Livingston Oil Field in the northwest and the Schwab Oil Field to the east. The terrain is marked by a complex network of waterways, including the Ace Emanuel Branch and Mill Creek, which feed into the main river channel. Residential development is visible around Schwab City and the clustered housing near Lake Connie Jean, where the Lake Connie Jean Dam regulates the water. To the north, the presence of Forest Springs Lake and several named branches like Isham Branch and Turner Creek suggest a well-watered timberland landscape accessed by rural routes such as Old Hwy 146 and Menard Chapel Rd.
