1958 Map of Gordonville

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Lake Texoma dominates the landscape of this 1950s survey, illustrating the transformation of the Red River valley following the construction of the Denison Dam. The map captures a transitional era for North Texas and Southern Oklahoma, where rising waters created complex shorelines around former river settlements like Gordonville and Cedar Mills. Local industry is centered on the Sadler-Moulder-Mineral Oil Field and numerous gravel pits, while the south shore is anchored by the Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge. Cultural and academic footprints are visible at the Oklahoma University Biological Station and Texoma Christian Camp, alongside numerous rural landmarks such as Mt Zion Ch and Shay Cem that provide valuable data for genealogists tracing families in the Red River region before the suburban expansion of later decades.
