About this map

Wilkinson and the small community of Argo anchor this portion of East Texas, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses and agricultural road systems. The winding path of White Oak Cr dominates the central terrain, flanked by significant local water bodies such as Brooks Lake, Brown Lake, and the interestingly named Cuckoo Pond. This survey details the rural infrastructure of Titus County, showing the proximity of early 21st-century farming operations and small settlements connected by routes like Farm Road 71 E and Farm Road 1402.

Family history is preserved at the Deshiell Cem in the north and Springhill Cem to the south, providing critical points of reference for genealogists. The presence of the Trix-Liz Oil Field in the northwest corner highlights the regional reliance on natural resources, while the naming of numerous tributaries like Stinking Cr, Snake Cr, and Smackover Cr reflects the literal, descriptive naming conventions of the local geography.
