2009 Map of Gene Autry

About this map

The town of Gene Autry and the sprawling Ardmore Municipal Airport dominate the central landscape of this Oklahoma survey. This region is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including the Washita River and the engineered water management of the Caddo Creek Site 28 Dam and Caddo Creek Site 29 Dam. Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the area, from Mount Pleasant Cemetery in the south to Big Canyon Cemetery near the northern border, providing vital markers of local family history. The terrain rises to distinct heights at Burning Mountain and White Mound, while smaller tributaries like Cool Creek and Bullhead Creek carve through the plains. The map also records numerous local roads with descriptive names like Tumbleweed Dr and Happy Trails Rd, reflecting the rural character of the land surrounding this unique settlement named for the legendary singing cowboy.
