2016 Map of Eddy

About this map

The Salt Fork Arkansas River carves a broad, winding path across this landscape on the border of Grant and Kay counties. The small settlement of Eddy sits north of the river, surrounded by a precise grid of rural roads and agricultural plots typical of north-central Oklahoma. Genealogists and local historians will find significant landmarks such as New Hope Cem to the northwest and Riverview Cem in the southern portion of the quadrangle. The hydrology of the region is defined by the river's extensive floodplain and tributaries like Deer Creek and Thompson Cr that feed into the main waterway from the north. This 2016 survey reflects the persistent rural character of the plains, where the land is primarily organized for farming and punctuated by isolated cemeteries and small township clusters.
