2010 Map of Walker

About this map

Walker serves as the primary settlement hub on this High Plains landscape, situated along the northern corridor where modern transit routes parallel the historic Old Hwy 40. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, most notably the meandering paths of Big Creek, the North Fork Big Creek, and Mud Creek. This area of Ellis County preserves its heritage through several dispersed burial grounds, including the Saint Anna Cemetery near the northern boundary and Saint Boniface Cemetery further south. The map reveals a highly structured rural grid, with family-named or descriptive roads like Walker Ave, Vincent Ave, and Grants Villa Rd connecting the agricultural plots and small creeks. The drainage patterns of Walker Creek in the east demonstrate the local geography's role in shaping the placement of section roads and farmsteads.
