About this map

Shelbyville anchors this survey of eastern Texas, where the local landscape is defined by the dense drainage network flowing toward the Sabine National Forest. The map documents a rural environment characterized by small settlements like Antioch, Campti, and James, connected by an intricate web of county roads. These communities are situated among prominent terrain features such as Bone Hill and numerous water bodies, including Bone Hill Lake and Windham Lake.

The hydrography of the region is particularly complex, with several major creeks such as Tenaha Cr, Prairie Cr, and Beauchamp Cr carving through the area. For those researching family history, the locations of Smith Cem and Price Cem provide specific points of interest. The eastern edge of the map shows the transition into federal lands, where Blankenship Cr and Talbert Cr flow through the protected forest zone.
