About this map

The Davy Crockett National Forest dominates the northwestern reaches of this East Texas terrain, where the small community of Trevat serves as a primary point of reference near the northern boundary. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the winding paths of Alabama Cr and Piney Cr, which drain through timbered lowlands. This area, located along the boundary of Trinity and Polk Counties, retains its rural character with numerous family-named roads such as James Minshew Rd and Sonny Sciler Rd serving scattered homesteads.

Local history researchers will find several significant burial sites, including Trevat Cem and Wagner Hill Cem, along with Abbott Springs Cem in the southeast corner. Significant natural features like Dry Lake and the various branches of Sulphur Cr suggest a landscape prone to seasonal changes, typical of the Piney Woods region. The map provides a contemporary view of these established settlements and their relationship to the expansive national forest lands.
