1965 Map of Byars SW

About this map

The Washita River floodplain and the Pauls Valley Oil Field define the economic landscape of this mid-1960s Garvin County survey. The Indian Meridian runs vertically along the western edge, anchoring the legal land descriptions of a region transitioning from raw river bottom to managed resources. Pauls Valley serves as the regional hub, situated where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad crosses the river. The map details the rural character of the uplands through a network of country churches like Free Holiness Ch and Bethel Ch, alongside small cemeteries such as Blue Branch Cem. The creation of Pauls Valley Lake in the center of the sheet reflects mid-century water management efforts, while the inclusion of the Fairground and local parks highlights the civic life of the era.
