2018 Map of Madge

About this map

Madge and Carl define the human landscape of this southwest Oklahoma territory, where the grid-based section lines of the Public Land Survey System dictate the modern road network. The terrain is shaped by the drainage of Horse Cr and the presence of Dixon Hollow, illustrating the transitional topography of the southern plains. Local history is anchored by the Independence Cem near Madge, providing a vital point of reference for genealogists tracing families in this corner of Harmon County. The inclusion of the Fred Yarbrough Reservoir highlights the importance of water management in this agricultural region. This map also captures the shared boundary between Harmon and Greer Counties, showing how these political divisions overlay the natural watercourses and varied elevations of the area.
