About this map

The Red River meanders across the border of Texas and Oklahoma in this 1951 study, defining the boundary between Red River County and McCurtain County. The landscape is characterized by its alluvial complexity, featuring oxbow formations and cutoff channels like Lick-Skillet Lake and Horseshoe Lake. Small, rural communities such as Acworth and Greenwood anchor the local geography, surrounded by a high density of country schools including Maple Springs Sch, Acworth Sch, and Mt Olive Sch. This map reveals a mid-century agricultural system reliant on small creeks like Whitegrass Creek and Collier Creek. Genealogy researchers will find several family-centric landmarks, including the Bachman Cem and the Chapel Hill Sch, which reflect the distributed nature of Texas settlement before the major postwar shifts in population toward larger urban centers.
