About this map

Indiana and Gettysburg townships define this corner of Graham County, where the plains are deeply dissected by the drainages of Bow Creek, Coon Creek, and the winding Sand Creek. The landscape is a mix of agricultural utility and resource extraction, evidenced by various oil wells and several quarries situated near the banks of Rock Creek. Local history is anchored by the South Star Cem in the north and Rock Creek Cem further south, providing clear reference points for genealogists. The presence of a Community Hall in the Indiana section suggests a hub for rural social life amidst the widespread field lines and fences that partition this high plains terrain.
