About this map

White Oak Creek and its broad, marshy basin dominate this portion of Titus County, creating a distinctive landscape of riparian wetlands and small lakes like Brown Lake and Brooks Lake. The settlement pattern is defined by rural clusters and family heritage sites, with several small communities such as Wilkinson and Midway serving as anchors for the surrounding farm-to-market road network.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several local burial grounds, including DeShield Cem in the north and Spring Hill Cem near the center of the sheet. The southern reaches of the map are defined by the winding paths of Stinking Cr and Smackover Cr, illustrating the complex drainage systems that historically influenced land use and property boundaries in this East Texas region. The presence of Blackmon Farms Reservoir Number 5 indicates the continued importance of water management for agricultural operations in the modern era.
