About this map

Pauls Valley Lake and its corresponding Pauls Valley Dam dominate this Garvin County landscape, illustrating a 21st-century water management system defined by numerous flood control structures. The map reveals an intricate network of rural roads such as City Lake Rd and Jumpin Judy Rd that navigate the varied terrain between the Washita River and northern creek valleys.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the location of Paoli Cemetery and Blue Branch Cemetery, which provide fixed points of reference for area families. The hydrography of the region is highly detailed, showing how Washington Creek, Owl Creek, and several branches of Peavine Creek are managed by named structures like the Washington Creek Site 3 Dam and the Cherokee Sandy Site 13 Dam.
