About this map

The Caney River winds through this section of Chautauqua County, anchoring a landscape shaped by rural settlements and local watercourses. Near the eastern edge of Cedar Vale, the terrain transitions into a network of creek drainages including Spring Br, Dry Cr, and Rock Creek. This area is characterized by scattered ranching and farming communities, with several named localities such as Hewins, Layton, and Osro marking the local geography.

Genealogists will find significant value in the preservation of local burial sites, including Grant Creek Cem near Wauneta and the Ozro Cem located north of Eagle Rd. Natural landmarks like Osro Falls and Possum Trot Cr illustrate the drainage patterns that have historically dictated road placement and land use across the county. The grid of local routes like Cowboy Rd and Dalton Rd provides a clear view of the modern rural infrastructure.
