About this map

The town of Troup and the nearby community of Arp anchor this landscape along the border of Smith and Cherokee Counties. A high density of rural burial grounds, including the New Hope Conglee Baptist Church Cem, Bradford Cem, and Union Grove Cem, suggests deep generational ties to the local countryside. The eastern reaches of Lake Tyler dominate the northwest corner, where Twin Bay Peninsula and Grand View Point overlook waters subdivided into local landmarks like Omen Road Bay and Shark Bay.

Creeks and branches, such as Kickapoo Cr and Horsepen Br, weave between the scattered settlements of Sinclair City and Salem. This drainage network defines the low-lying terrain between the ridges that carry the local farm-to-market roads. The map captures a mix of residential growth and long-established homesteads, evident in the numerous family-named cemeteries and the network of county roads that have replaced earlier transit routes.
