2016 Map of Weston

About this map

Weston and Chambersville serve as the primary nodes of settlement in this part of north-central Collin County, where the agricultural past meets modern rural development. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the E Fork Trinity River in the northeast and a network of seasonal streams including Honey Cr, Stover Cr, and Franklin Br. This hydrologic pattern influenced the placement of early homesteads and cemeteries, many of which remain visible as small island-like clearings on the modern landscape. Genealogists can locate several local burial grounds such as Mugg Cem, Franklin Cem, and Wilson Cem. To the south, the expansive Erwin Park provides a transition from the agricultural plains toward the growing outskirts of McKinney. The road network, comprising established routes like W FM 455 and numerous county roads such as Twin Bridges Rd, follows the section lines and topography of the Blackland Prairie.
