2019 Map of Sipe Springs

About this map

Sipe Springs sits at the heart of this North Texas landscape where the boundaries of Eastland and Comanche counties meet. The settlement is flanked by agricultural lands and a series of managed water bodies, including the descriptively named Railroad Lake and Highway Lake. This 2019 survey documents a rural environment defined by its drainage systems, where Copperas Creek and its many tributaries like Keys Br and Nanny Br carve through the terrain. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies critical landmarks such as the Sipe Springs Cem and Parker Cem, which serve as vital anchors for tracing the area's early residents. The road network, including FM 587 and Ranch RD 1477, connects these small-scale landmarks, revealing the modern persistence of a community shaped by its proximity to local creeks and the small reservoirs of the North Gibson Lake and South Gibson Lake areas.
