2024 Map of Union Springs

About this map

The Toledo Bend Reservoir dominates this borderland landscape, where the waters of the Sabine River divide Louisiana and Texas. On the eastern shore in Sabine Parish, the small settlement of Union Springs sits near the winding course of Bossier Bayou and Prairie Creek. The terrain is defined by distinct elevations like Sand Hill and Big Hill, while specialized ecological zones such as Racetrack Prairie and Gravel Prairie appear near the southern reaches of the reservoir. To the west, the community of Huxley marks the edge of the Sabine National Forest in Shelby County. This modern survey provides precise locations for family history markers including Oak Grove Church Cem, Bossier Cem, and Pauls Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted rural congregations that have long inhabited these timberlands and bayous.
