2010 Map of Three Oaks

About this map

Three Oaks sits at the center of a landscape defined by an extensive network of drainage creeks and managed water resources in Wilson County. The terrain is notably etched by the winding paths of Sulphur Creek, Cat Creek, and Los Cortes Creek, which dominate the local hydrology. The presence of engineered structures like Grimes Lake Dam, Tessman Lake Dam, and the evocatively named Uranium Lake Dam suggests a history of localized water management for agricultural or industrial use. The map reveals a highly structured rural grid of farm-to-market roads and county routes, including F.M. 541 and F.M. 2505, which connect isolated farmsteads and agricultural plots. This road network, following the natural contours of the creek beds and low-lying areas, illustrates the transition of traditional ranching and farming lands into the early 21st century.
