About this map

The Red River snakes along the southern border of this landscape, creating a complex hydrologic network of oxbows and cutoffs between Oklahoma and Texas. Near Grant, the river forms prominent features like Pitts Bend and Allen Island, while Roebuck Lake sits as a remnant of the river's shifting course. Further north, the confluence of Muddy Boggy Cr and the Boggy Cutoff marks the low-lying terrain.

Settlement patterns follow the higher ground and major thoroughfares connecting Hugo to the northern reaches of the map. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites documenting local family histories, including Mt Olivet Cem, Springs Chapel Cem, and Sweet Hill Cem. The area around Goodland reflects a rural community structure defined by a grid of numbered roads like N 4200 RD, which cut through the drainage basins of Hanubby Cr and Horse Cr.
