About this map

The rolling blackland prairies of Fannin and Hunt Counties are defined by the headwaters of the Sulphur River system. Small rural settlements like Gober and Bartley Woods serve as anchor points in an agricultural landscape dominated by creek drainages such as Allen Cr, Pot Cr, and Brushy Cr. The southern portion of the map transition into the Caddo National Grassland, where the terrain drops toward the Middle Sulphur River.

Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds preserved across the townships, including Biggerstaff Cem, Providence Cem, and Woods Cem in the north, while the southern reach near Wolfe City Reservoirs contains Rehobeth Cem and Brecheen Cem. The map provides a clear look at the historical boundary between Fannin and Hunt Counties as it interacts with the branching tributaries of the North Sulphur River.
