1972 Map of Hucmac

About this map

Hucmac sits at the center of this rural Oklahoma landscape during the early 1970s, where the high plains terrain of Dewey County is deeply dissected by the drainage of Little Robe Creek. This creek system winds southward toward the Canadian River, which cuts across the far southwestern corner of the quadrangle. The map reveals a sparsely populated agricultural and energy-producing region, evidenced by the broad Oil Field designation in the northeast and scattered oil wells along the draws. Local community life is anchored by the Church of Christ and the Monice Cemetery, while the larger boundary of Taloga is indicated to the west. The survey provides a clear view of the section-line road network that defines the rural geometry of the Little Robe area, showing how topography and township lines dictated the placement of homesteads and infrastructure.
