About this map

Telico and Creechville anchor the northeastern landscape of this Ellis County region, where the blackland prairie meets a network of vital waterways. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Village Cr and Cottonwood Cr, which historically supported the agricultural development of family-owned operations like Gillespie Farm. Interstate 45 cuts a prominent diagonal across the sheet, linking the community of Alma to the wider Texas transport corridor and marking the modern evolution of these rural spaces.

Genealogists can locate the Redwine Cem situated south of the interstate, a key landmark for local family history. Small settlements such as Ensign, Oak Grove, and Sonoma are distributed throughout the quadrangle, connected by a web of rural routes like Creechville Rd and Old Telico Rd. This 2012 survey illustrates the transition from traditional farming tracts to more modern residential and industrial footprints near the eastern edges of Ennis.
