About this map

Chattanooga and Faxon serve as the primary hubs in this southwestern Oklahoma landscape, where the borders of Tillman, Comanche, and Cotton counties converge. The geography is defined by a dense network of waterways, most notably Deep Red Creek and Beaver Creek, which drain the agricultural plains. Significant local landmarks include the Chattanooga Airport and several community institutions such as the Ahpeatone Sch and Bible Ch, reflecting a rural society built around small-town centers and crossroads schools.

Local history and genealogy interests are well-served by the presence of the Chattanooga Cem and Faxon Cem, while the industrial character of the era is marked by numerous Gravel Pits scattered near the creek beds. The drainage patterns of Persimmon Creek and Jack Creek illustrate the natural irrigation of the Haskell and Alfalfa districts, providing a clear view of the region's land use before later 20th-century developments altered the rural fabric.
