About this map

The boundary between Major and Blaine Counties bisects this agricultural landscape, centered on the small settlement of Homestead. This region of western Oklahoma is characterized by its section-line road grid and the winding paths of seasonal waterways such as Sand Creek and Deep Creek. The map provides a clear look at the rural cemetery network that anchored these communities, including the Mennonite Cemetery and Plymouth Cemetery.

To the north, the southern edge of Fairview enters the frame, marking a transition toward more concentrated development. The surrounding terrain remains dominated by larger land tracts, with drainage systems like Elm Creek influencing the local topography. This survey documents the persistent rural character of the area, where historical burial grounds like Cedar Cemetery and Homestead Cemetery serve as primary landmarks in an otherwise open, cultivated prairie.
