About this map

The rolling country along the Navarro and Limestone county line is defined by a dense network of water management sites and small rural landmarks. This landscape is dominated by numerous flood control structures, such as Soil Conservation Service Site 26a Reservoir and Soil Conservation Service Site 18 Reservoir, which sit among the headwaters of Pin Oak Cr and Board Cr. These reservoirs suggest a modern era of intensive land and soil management designed to control runoff into the Brazos and Trinity basins.

Local history is preserved in small nodes like the settlement of Rodney and several family or community burial grounds, including Broadtree Cem, Cogdell Cem, and White Cem. The terrain rises toward Bald Hill in the south, overlooking the drainage of Tehuacana Cr. While many of the primary roads like FM 27 and FM 638 facilitate regional travel, the numerous numbered county roads provide detailed access for those tracing old property lines or ancestral home sites in this quiet corner of East Central Texas.
