1956 Map of Cache
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge and the Fort Sill Military Reservation dominate the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, where the rocky peaks of the Wichita Mountains meet the plains of southwest Oklahoma. The map documents a complex network of upland water bodies, including Quanah Parker Lake, French Lake, and Osage Lake, while the southern half transitions into more open agricultural land. Local social hubs are clearly marked, such as the Nazarene Indian Mission near Indiahoma and the Deyo Memorial Chapel and Deyo Cemetery further east. The presence of these institutional and spiritual centers, alongside the St Louis San Francisco railroad line passing through Cache, illustrates the established rural community structure that persisted alongside the expanding federal and military land holdings in the mid-1950s.
