About this map

Waxahachie Creek and its many tributaries, including North Prong Creek and South Prong Creek, define the drainage of this Ellis County landscape. This 2010 survey illustrates a sophisticated network of water management, evidenced by nearly twenty Soil Conservation Service dams such as Soil Conservation Service Site 2a Dam and Soil Conservation Service Site 17 Dam. These structures support the agricultural operations between the growing centers of Midlothian and Waxahachie.

Local aviation is well-represented by several facilities, from the Midlothian-Waxahachie Municipal Airport to the more specialized Zook Airfield and Mims Farm Ultralight Airport. For those researching local families, the map identifies several historic burial grounds, including Mount Zion Cemetery, Sardis Cemetery, and Hillcrest Park Cemetery, alongside established local landmarks like the Singleton Farm and Diamond J Ranch.
