2012 Map of Tecula

About this map

Tecula and Mixon anchor this section of Cherokee County, characterized by a complex network of creeks and small private lakes. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of W Mud Cr and Birches Cr, which feed into numerous water bodies such as Goldy Lake and Stockton Lake. This area reflects a long history of resource extraction, notably marked by the North Jacksonville Oil Field located west of Mixon. The presence of the Tecula Cem serves as a primary point of interest for genealogists tracing family histories in these rural communities. Much of the local infrastructure revolves around county roads and farm-to-market routes, including Farm-To-Market Road 3812, which connect these dispersed settlements and highlight the transition from industrial oil production to agricultural land use.
