About this map

Terrell serves as a significant regional hub in Kaufman County, centered around a dense grid of residential and commercial streets. The city’s institutional history is anchored by Southwestern Christian Coll and a concentration of civic landmarks, including the State Hospital Cem and several other burial grounds like Oakland Cem and Oakwood Cem. This map illustrates the transition from urban development to a landscape of winding creeks and small rural outposts.

South of the city, Post Oak Bend City and the neighboring Post Oak Bend represent smaller incorporated areas where the terrain opens into a network of drainages. Waterways such as Bachelor Cr and Kings Cr thread through the countryside, while aviation interests are represented by the Terrell Municipal Airport and the private Flying G Airport. The area’s genealogical value is high, with numerous family and municipal cemeteries such as the East Bachelor Cemeteries and Rose Hill Cem distributed across the prairie.
