About this map

Lenapah and Delaware serve as the primary population centers in this section of Nowata County, Oklahoma, at the start of the twenty-first century. The landscape is defined by a dense grid of rural roads and the meandering paths of several significant waterways, including California Creek and its tributary, Little California Creek. In the northwest corner, the Glenn Webster Dam creates the Glenn-Webster Reservoir, a notable water feature in an area otherwise dominated by small-scale agriculture and prairie terrain.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established burial grounds such as Mount Washington Cemetery near Lenapah and Bezoin Cemetery further south. The drainage patterns of Wolf Creek, with its northern and southern forks, alongside Mormon Creek, illustrate the natural irrigation of the region. Small settlements like Ruthdale and the landmark at Cedar Bluff provide further points of interest for those studying the social and physical geography of this corner of the state.
