About this map

The town of Corn serves as the primary settlement in this part of western Oklahoma, situated at the southern edge of a landscape defined by its agricultural layout and numerous watercourses. The map details the drainage patterns of Bear Creek and Corn Creek as they flow south toward the Washita River in the southwestern corner. This area, spanning the boundary between Custer and Washita counties, preserves a record of local community centers through several rural burial grounds and houses of worship.

Genealogists and local historians will find the locations of the Krimmer Cem, Zion Cem, and South Cedar Cem particularly valuable for tracing early families. The presence of the Bergthal Ch and the Sleepy Hill Landing Strip highlights the character of this rural district in the early 1980s, where traditional community landmarks existed alongside modern aviation infrastructure and scattered industrial markers like the various gas wells and drill holes.
