About this map

Winkler and the surrounding Navarro County countryside are defined by the expansive waters of Lake Corsicana and the braided drainage of Tehuacana Creek. This 2019 survey documents a landscape where agricultural roots and residential lakeside development coexist along the Navarro and Freestone County line. The northern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the lake's fingers, including Texas Industries Lake and the marshy Hogpen Slough, while the southern reaches follow the meandering paths of Greenbriar Creek and Sandy Creek.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several rural burial grounds, such as Sweetman Blackmon Cemetery and the Petersburg Cemetery. The map also captures the layout of smaller communities like Eureka and provides a clear record of the rural road network, from Ranch Road 416 to family-named routes like Pleasant Hall Cemetery Road, illustrating the modern connectivity of this North Texas region.
