About this map

Bickford Cemetery and Mount Hope Cemetery stand as central landmarks in this high-plains landscape of Ellis County, Oklahoma. The area is defined by a grid of rural roads, including n1730 RD and e0380 RD, which navigate the subtle drainage basins of ephemeral waterways. The geography is carved by the winding paths of Dry Prong, Six Pony Creek, and Ivanhoe Creek, illustrating the natural irrigation patterns essential to this portion of the Oklahoma Panhandle border region. This survey captures a rural landscape where the placement of cemeteries relative to the section lines provides a key to the early settlement and community structure of the region during the early twenty-first century.
