About this map

Wortham serves as the primary hub of this North Texas landscape, where a dense grid of residential streets like W Main Ave and S Avenue B meet the rural roads of Freestone County. The region's economy is visibly tied to the petroleum industry, evidenced by the large Wortham Oil Field and Currie Oil Field to the north, alongside the Tehuacana Oil Field in the south near the small settlement of Gude.

Water management is central to the area's geography, with New Wortham Lake, Wortham Lake Number 1, and Wortham Lake Number 2 dotting the terrain. For those tracing local family histories, the map records several burial grounds including Long Bottom Cem and Miller Cem. The land is drained by a network of waterways such as Tehuacana Cr and Wolf Cr, which wind through the agricultural tracts and oil patches.
