About this map

Turkey Creek and its many tributaries, including the curiously named Hell and Gone Creek, define the drainage of this Garfield County landscape. The area is characterized by a precise grid of section-line roads, such as E0530 Rd and N2810 Rd, which separate agricultural tracts and lead to small family-associated landmarks. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of Hope Cemetery and Hennessey Cemetery, as well as the naturally occurring Buffalo Springs. The economy of the era is reflected in the private aviation infrastructure, evidenced by the Pribyl Ranch Landing Strip and Miller Landing Strip. Water management is represented by the Oknoname 04701 Dam, which interrupts the natural flow of Buffalo Creek in the central portion of the survey.
