1951 Map of Garvin
USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
The Little River meanders through the northern landscape of McCurtain County, creating distinctive landmarks like Possum Ford Bend and Rattlesnake Island. This mid-century topographical study shows a rural network of schoolhouses and churches that served the agricultural community, including Wheelock Academy in the northwest and Garvin at the intersection of the St Louis San Francisco railroad and U. S. Route 70. Numerous waterways, such as Waterhole Creek and Bokchito Creek, drain the territory, while the presence of the Forest Hill Ch Cem and several gravel pits indicates the local infrastructure and community hubs of the era. The map provides a clear picture of the township divisions, including the Sulphur, Kirk, and White districts, during a time when rural life was centered around these scattered points of interest.
