2018 Map of Little City

About this map

Fort Washita anchors the northern portion of this landscape, a significant frontier site situated near the Confederate Cem and Post Cem. The area is defined by the expansive waters of Lake Texoma, which has transformed the historical confluence of the Washita River and its various tributaries. The map documents the complex shoreline created by the reservoir, including the Old Channel Washita River and the engineering of the Cumberland Cut, which diverted the river's path. Smaller settlements like Little City, Cumberland, and Aylesworth dot the upland areas above the waterline, connected by a network of rural roads such as the Zachary Taylor highway. Genealogists will find several burial grounds noted, including the Cumberland Cem and Aylesworth Cem, providing essential markers for families tied to these Red River valley communities.
