About this map

The town of Whitehouse anchors the northwestern corner of this East Texas survey, where the suburban landscape meets the sprawling waters of Lake Tyler. This 2022 dataset captures the intricate shoreline of the lake, including named features like Possum Park Peninsula and Windy Peninsula, alongside smaller water bodies like Grove Club Lake and Dodds Lake. The terrain is defined by a network of creek systems, most notably Kickapoo Cr, Mud Cr, and Blackhawk Cr, which carve through the wooded hills between Whitehouse and Troup.

Genealogists will find a wealth of local history preserved in the numerous family and community burial grounds documented here, including Whitehouse Cem, Rucker Cem, and Walnut Grove Cem. The map tracks the boundary between Smith Co and Cherokee Co as it runs south of Troup, providing a modern reference for the region's long-established rural road network, including the Old Troup Hwy and various county routes that connect these historic communities.
