2013 Map of Tira

About this map

S Sulphur River meanders across the northern reaches of this north Texas landscape, defining a network of seasonal creeks and sloughs that feed into the large expanse of Cooper Lake to the west. This territory in northern Hopkins County is characterized by a series of small, interconnected rural communities that speak to the area's agricultural roots. The map documents the relationship between established hamlets like Birthright and New Birthright, as well as several family-named burial grounds including Aiguier Cem, Selt Cem, and Rushing Cem. Local aviation is represented by Chuckster Airport, situated between Tira and Oak Grove. The road system, dominated by routes like Farm Road 1536 and Farm Road 71 W, links these scattered settlements, while waterways such as Vaden Cr and Logston Br drain the gently undulating terrain toward the river basin.
