About this map

The South Wichita River winds across this Knox County landscape, creating a dramatic oxbow at Glover Bend. This 2019 survey documents the rural character of North Texas, where the small community of Truscott sits near the northern boundary, supported by a network of ranch roads including Todd Ranch Rd and Put Ranch Rd. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Sheep Creek and China Creek, which feed into the larger river valley.

Local family history and geography are centered on the Truscott Cemetery and the seasonal waters of China Lake. The map reveals a sparsely populated ranching region where names like Deadman Creek hint at the area's frontier past. This modern topographic record is essential for understanding the contemporary layout of Knox County land parcels, cattle roads, and the persistent natural waterways that have shaped regional settlement since the late 19th century.
