Terrell anchor this region where the Blackland Prairie begins to transition into the East Texas post oak belt. The landscape is defined by the drainage networks of Bachelor Creek, Kings Creek, and Little Brushy Creek, which carve through the rural terrain south of the city. While the northern section shows the urban expansion of Terrell and its transportation corridors like State Spur 557, the southern half remains a patchwork of agricultural lands and small communities including Union Valley, Post Oak Bend, and Lone Star. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds throughout this survey, from large municipal sites like Oakwood Cemetery and Barrow Cemetery to more remote locations such as Rose Hill Cemetery and the East Bachelor Cemeteries. The presence of both the Terrell Municipal Airport and the Flying G Airport underscores the importance of aviation to this part of Kaufman County.
