2010 Map of Devol

About this map

Devol stands as the primary settlement on this Cotton County landscape, positioned just north of the winding course of the Red River. The township's layout is defined by a rigorous grid of section-line roads, such as Co RD e1940 and Co RD n2460, which connect local landmarks including the Devol Cemetery and Locust St. Along the northern banks of the river, North Bank Siding reflects the historical importance of the rail corridor passing through the region. The map captures a transition in the hydrologic landscape where Wildhorse Creek and Bule Creek converge toward the main river channel. South of the main settlement, Goat Island sits within the shifting braided channels of the river, while the Tulssis Dam provides evidence of local water management in this agricultural borderland between Oklahoma and Texas.
