About this map

The town of Ramona and the village of Ochelata anchor this survey of southern Washington County, characterized by a complex drainage network feeding the Caney River in the northeast. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of N Fork Double Cr, S Fork Double Cr, and Double Cr, which converge across a grid of rural section roads. These waterways were central to the area's early settlement patterns, as evidenced by the placement of historic burial grounds like Ramona Cem, Ochelata Cem, and the more centrally located Ceasar Cem.

South of Ochelata, the Twin Mounds provide a distinctive topographical landmark in an otherwise gently undulating terrain. The inclusion of small bodies of water such as Lake Todd and smaller unnamed ponds suggests a landscape shaped by both natural hydrology and local agricultural development. The map meticulously documents the transition from established street grids in the town centers to the naming of outlying routes like Nellie Bly Cr and Tyner Cr.
