About this map

Toco and the surrounding Lamar County landscape are defined by a network of rural farm-to-market roads and seasonal watercourses. The area's settlement history is preserved through scattered communities such as Brookston, Sumner, and Globe, alongside smaller locales like Hopewell and Maxey. For genealogists, the map identifies local burial grounds including Little Vine Cemetery, Jackson Cemetery, and Prairie Ridge Cemetery, providing vital markers for family history research.

The terrain is drained by several branches of Pine Creek and Little Pine Creek, with man-made features like Lake Gibbons and the Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Dam altering the local hydrology. Aviation history is noted by the presence of the Flying Tigers Airport, while infrastructure is represented by the State Highway 5 Bridge. This 2010 survey shows a region where modern county roads have largely replaced earlier trails while maintaining the traditional distribution of rural Texas townships.
