2022 Map of Counts

About this map

Ti Valley and the surrounding highlands of Southeast Oklahoma are defined by a network of rural homesteads and family burial grounds in this modern topographic study. The landscape is structured by several distinct hollows and valleys, including Hogeye Hollow and Burris Valley, where the small communities of Counts and Weathers are situated. These settlements remain anchored by generational landmarks such as the Sardis Indian Baptist Church Cem and several smaller family plots like Smith Cem and Baker Cem. The terrain rises sharply toward the southeast at Jackfork Mtn, while numerous drainage systems including North Jackfork Creek and Cedar Cr carve through the ridges. This map captures the enduring rural character of the area, showing how modern roads like Ti Valley Rd and Burris Valley Rd still follow the natural contours of the historic landscape.
