2018 Map of Bluff

About this map

The Red River defines the border between Oklahoma and Texas in this modern survey, where the winding waterway separates Choctaw and Lamar counties. This riparian landscape is characterized by a complex network of seasonal creeks and wetlands, including the expansive Muddy Boggy Creek and Bokchito Creek systems that feed into the river valley. The map documents the rural settlement patterns near the state line, anchored by the community of Razor and the high ground of Garretts Bluff. Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites preserved in the landscape, such as Bluff Cem, Reid Cem, and Macedonia Cem. The terrain is a mix of lowland basins like Palmer Lake and elevated ridges defined by small tributaries such as Dead Man Branch and Pole Creek, reflecting the traditional agricultural grid of East 2000-series roads.
