1966 Map of Chickasha

About this map

The Indian Territory Boundary Line cuts through the western edge of this Grady County landscape, serving as a reminder of the region's complex tribal history. Central to the map is the city of Chickasha, a major hub where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific and the St Louis San Francisco railroads intersect. The town's institutional importance is evident through landmarks such as the Oklahoma College for Women, St Joseph Academy, and Grady Memorial Hospital. Beyond the urban grid, the Washita River meanders across the plain, punctuated by features like the Chickasha Municipal Airport and the sprawling Fairground. To the north, the small settlements of Pocasset and Amber sit amidst a network of rural schools including Friend Sch and Northwest Sch, illustrating the mid-century development of Oklahoma's agricultural and educational infrastructure.
