2012 Map of Styx

About this map

The Trinity River defines the winding southern boundary of this landscape, its meanders creating a complex network of oxbows and wetlands including Berry Lake and Round Pond. The area is characterized by small, scattered settlements like Styx and Aley, where agricultural life is punctuated by local landmarks like Blanton Rnch. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of several burial sites, such as Ware Cem and Timothy Cem, which sit alongside historic crossings and landings such as Porters Bluff. Numerous creeks, including Caney Cr and Bois d'Arc Cr, feed into the Trinity, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped land use and property boundaries in this part of Henderson County.
