1957 Map of Denison Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Denison Dam anchors this landscape at the Red River, where the massive impoundment of Lake Texoma creates a jagged shoreline along the Texas-Oklahoma border. The city of Denison expands to the south, characterized by its dense street grid and educational hubs like Central School and Houston School. The area's industrial and transit history is clearly defined by several rail lines, including the Missouri Kansas Texas Railroad and the St Louis San Francisco, which converge near the river crossing. Outside the urban center, the map records numerous smaller communities such as Colbert and Cartwright, alongside localized extraction at various Gravel Pits. Genealogists will find significant detail in the multiple burial grounds, such as Fairview Cemetery and Oakwood Cemetery, which serve as permanent records of the region's early residents.
