About this map

Gerty forms the primary settlement on this sheet, organized along a small grid of streets including 2nd St through 8th St. The town's historical geography is anchored by the Gerty Cem to the east and the Panther Creek Cem to the south, providing clear points of interest for genealogists tracing Hughes County roots. The surrounding landscape is defined by a dense network of waterways, most notably Muddy Boggy Cr along the southern edge and several branches like Big Sandy Cr and Panther Cr that carve through the section lines.

Industrial activity is evidenced by the Ne Citra Oil and Gas Field west of town, illustrating the energy extraction that has shaped the local economy. In the southeastern corner, the Mike Russell Reservoir stands as a significant hydrological feature along Spring Br. The map's network of county roads, such as E1480 Rd and N3760 Rd, reflects the rigid section-line development typical of Oklahoma's rural interior.
