About this map

The North Fork Red River meanders across the southern portion of this Beckham County landscape, defining the local topography and drainage patterns. Near the center of the sheet, the Poarch Cem stands along the section lines, serving as a primary point of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing family ties in the rural outskirts of Carter. The terrain is characterized by a network of creeks, including Sadler Cr, Boggy Cr, and Flat Cr, which cut through the open country.

Industrial and agricultural transport is facilitated by a strictly organized grid of rural roads, such as e1250 RD and e1270 RD, that navigate the townships of T9N R22W and T8N R21W. The small community of Taylor marks the northeastern corner of the map, illustrating the sparse but deliberate settlement pattern typical of the Oklahoma plains in the modern era. This survey provides a clear view of how historic land divisions and natural waterways continue to shape the regional geography.
