2016 Map of Cope Branch

About this map

England Cem stands as a focal point for family history in this cattle-ranching landscape on the edge of the Texas Rolling Plains. The area is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages, including Little Mountain Cr, Coal Cr, and Daggett Cr, which cut through the limestone-inflected terrain toward larger watersheds. The local road system, often named for the ranching families who established these holdings, includes England Rd, Thena Farr Ranch Rd, and Seven Bar Ranch Rd, reflecting the large-acreage land use that has characterized this portion of Baylor County for generations. Topographic features like Wolf Hollow provide a localized sense of the breaks and ridges that distinguish the drainage basins of Godwin Cr and the namesake Cope Branch.
