1978 Map of Coyle

About this map

The Cimarron River carves a wide arc through this Oklahoma landscape, defining the transition between North Cimarron and South Cimarron. In the late 1970s, the region was characterized by its energy infrastructure and agricultural footprint, with multiple Oil Fields and a extensive network of Pipelines traversing the townships of Paradise, Antelope, and Perkins. The town of Coyle serves as a local hub, situated near the riverbanks where an Old Railroad Grade indicates former transportation corridors that once linked this area to nearby Goodnight and Langston. Small rural communities and landmarks like Friends Chapel, Mt Pilgrim Ch, and Camp Cimarron are interspersed among the drainages of Fitzgerald Creek and Soldier Creek. Topographic details also reveal the localized relief of Horse Thief Canyon and the established boundaries of the Iowa township, alongside quiet local burial grounds such as Paradise Cem and Oak Grove Cem.
