1956 Map of Cordell

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Cordell serves as the central hub of this Washita County landscape, where the St Louis and San Francisco railroad cuts through the western terrain to connect the settlements of Bessie and Cordell. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community defined by its numerous denominational landmarks, such as Bergthal Ch, Peace Ch, and Herold Ch, alongside several family and community burial grounds like Krimmer Cem and Sichar Cem. The meandering path of the Washita River dominates the central valley, joined by tributaries including Boggy Creek and Coffee Creek. Modernity and tradition meet at the town edges, where the Cordell Airport and a Radio Tower sit in contrast to the Chapel Hill Sch (Abandoned). The arrangement of these small schools and churches suggests a mid-century period of transition for these agricultural townships.
