2016 Map of Winnsboro

About this map

Winnsboro serves as the central hub for this corner of East Texas, where the boundaries of Hopkins, Franklin, and Wood Counties converge. The city's street grid is clearly defined, with major thoroughfares like E Broadway St and N Main St forming the commercial heart. To the southwest, the expansive Lake Winnsboro dominates the landscape, its irregular shoreline punctuated by numerous inlets where Big Sandy Creek and Little Sandy Creek drain into the basin. This hydrology is a defining characteristic of the area, as the terrain is carved by a dense network of streams including Indian Creek, Briary Creek, and Crooked Creek. Genealogists and local historians can locate several significant sites, such as Lee Cem and McGee Cem, which provide tangible links to the community's past generations. The Winnsboro Municipal Airport and small bodies of water like Railroad Pool further illustrate the mix of modern infrastructure and rural land use.
