About this map

The Saline River cuts through the northern landscape of this Ellis County region, while the North Fork Big Creek flows along the southern edge. This 2009 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a sparse, agricultural environment organized by a rigid section-line road network. Local family names and historical ties are preserved in thoroughfare labels like Dean Hill Ave and Severin Rd.

Evidence of early Catholic settlement is visible at the Saint Severin Cemetery in the southeastern quadrant, a primary point of interest for genealogists tracking local ancestry. The terrain's character is further defined by Horse Thief Canyon Ave, suggesting the more dissected landforms near the river. Significant local routes including Saline River Rd, Homestead Rd, and St John St Andrew Rd provide a clear view of the rural infrastructure at the start of the 21st century.
