2016 Map of Weldon

About this map

Weldon serves as the central hub of this East Texas landscape, situated along the Houston and Walker County line. The area is defined by a dense network of creek drainages, including the prominent Negro Cr, Kellisons Cr, and Wright Cr. These waterways are flanked by numerous county roads that connect isolated homesteads and local landmarks. For genealogists, the presence of several well-marked burial sites like Weldon Cem, Salem Cem, and the Adams - Little Memorial Cem offers significant local history value. A distinct settlement pattern emerges around Iron Bridge and Nash Spring, where the terrain transitions toward the Trinity River basin. The map illustrates a rural Texas community structured around its water sources and long-standing family cemeteries, preserving the spatial layout of this Houston County region into the 21st century.
