About this map

Braithwaite sits at the northern edge of this Washita County landscape, where the agricultural grid is defined by a complex network of watershed management. The terrain is shaped by the drainage systems of Boggy Cr and Cavalry Cr, which have been transformed by numerous soil conservation structures including Boggy Cr Watershed Site 12 Reservoir and Cavalry Cr Watershed 22 Reservoir. These man-made features highlight the mid-century transition toward intensive water management in the Oklahoma plains.

Local history is preserved in small, scattered burial grounds that punctuate the section lines, such as Old Boggy Cem and Dugford Cem. To the east, the map captures the outskirts of New Cordell, showing the intersection of rural section roads like e1170 RD with the developing town limits. The presence of Sod Cem and Russell Cem provides specific points of interest for genealogists tracing early families in the area between the Boggy and Cavalry creek forks.
