About this map

Bradford serves as a central hub in this landscape where White, Jackson, and Woodruff counties meet. The settlement pattern follows the local drainage systems and transport corridors, with Grand Glaise and the intriguing Old Grand Glaise situated near the shifting banks of the White River. To the north, the community of Possum Grape and the historic Coffeeville area reveal a region defined by small-scale farming and family legacy, evidenced by numerous burial grounds like Coffeyville Cem, Oakland Cem, and Scantlin Cem.

The eastern portion of the survey is dominated by the complex hydrology of the river bottomlands, featuring Departee Creek, Bear Water Slough, and Goose Pond. Landmarks such as Dudley Dread and Blackbird Bend along the river reflect the importance of water navigation and local nomenclature. Higher ground is found at Tucker Ridge, while smaller tributaries like Oats Cr and Butter Cr weave through the western hills, supporting numerous small lakes and reservoirs.
