About this map

The western edges of Ardmore and the surrounding rural landscape of Carter County are defined here by a series of water management projects and ancestral grounds. The hydrology of the region is marked by several significant structures, including the Lake Ardmore Dam, City Lake Dam, and the Noble-Sea Cattle Company Dam, which together regulate the flow of Rock Creek and Caddo Creek. This network of small lakes and reservoirs supported both municipal needs and private agricultural interests like the Noble-Sea Cattle Company.

Genealogists will find a cluster of burial sites concentrated on the southeastern corner of the sheet. The presence of Saint Marys Cemetery, Mount Zion Cemetery, Rose Hill Cemetery, and Hillcrest Cemetery provides a clear view of the community's historical development and family lineages. The map also traces the transition from the grid-like residential streets of the city to the larger agricultural tracts accessed by routes like Noble Foundation Rd and Valley Ranch Rd.
