1965 Map of Crawford

About this map

Crawford serves as a central point of reference in this mid-1960s survey of Roger Mills County. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of the Washita River and several of its tributaries, including Dead Indian Creek, Dugout Creek, and Spring Creek. The topography around Twin Hills reflects the transition between upland plateaus and the more dissected river valleys. Cultural landmarks of particular interest for local history include the United Pentecostal Ch and Sunrise Cem. The presence of an Oil Well and the development of Spring Creek Lake highlight the intersection of natural resource utilization and land management in the mid-20th century, while the map also preserves the alignments of numerous rural fence and field lines that shaped the agricultural layout of the time.
