Boggy Creek and its various branches, including West Boggy Creek and South Boggy Creek, drain the northern half of this Washita County landscape, while Cavalry Creek flows through the southern reaches. The 1980s cattle and agricultural character of the region is evident in the network of section-line roads and the scattered placement of Gas Wells and water tanks. The settlement at Braithwaite and the proximity to Cordell provide focal points for local history, with the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and Burlington Northern railroads serving as critical transport corridors for Oklahoma's plains. Genealogists will find significant value in the four named burial grounds shown, including Old Boggy Cem, Sod Cem, Dugford Cem, and Russell Cem, which provide clues to early family homesteads in the Bessie and Cordell districts.
