About this map

Carter Settlement and the small community of Simmons Bottom anchor this portion of Liberty County, revealing a landscape defined by the winding course of Luce Bayou. Located northwest of Dayton, the area is characterized by its transition from wooded bottomlands to rural homesteads and newer residential developments. Local genealogy is rooted at the Ryan Cemetery, situated near the intersection of Co RD 303 and Co RD 3001.

The map details the drainage patterns of Indian Gulley and Long John Creek, which flow through a network of rural routes like Rice Rd and Old Cleveland Rd. While traditional settlements remain, modern growth is visible in subdivisions such as Eastwood Park and street names like Trinity Hills Dr and Arabian Rd, illustrating the gradual expansion of residential footprints into the Texas coastal prairie.
