2018 Map of Hope

About this map

Duncan and the smaller settlements of Bray and Hope anchor this portion of Stephens County, where the landscape is defined by its water resources and rural aviation. The area is dominated by significant reservoirs including Clear Creek Lake and Duncan Lake, which serve as focal points for the surrounding sections. This 2018 survey illustrates a transition from the structured street grids of Duncan along Anderson St to the sprawling section roads of the surrounding townships. Genealogical value is found in the scattered rural burial grounds like Hope Cem, Colbert Cem, and Cruce Cem, which mark long-established communities. The presence of Ketchum Ranch Airport and Wolfe Field highlights the importance of light aviation in this region, while the network of creeks, such as Wildhorse Cr and Bluff Cr, drains the prairie terrain toward the reservoirs.
