1971 Map of Mangum North

About this map

The Elm Fork Red River snakes through the center of this Oklahoma landscape, defining the northern approaches to Mangum. While the town of Mangum serves as the regional hub with its grid of streets including Adams St and Monroe St, the settlement of Bloomington sits to the west, marking a quieter rural corner of Greer County. The area’s infrastructure in the early 1970s is well-documented, featuring the C R I & P railroad line and the Mangum City Airport. Local life is anchored by institutions such as the Edison Sch, the local Golf Course, and recreational spaces like Harmon Field. Genealogists will find value in the precise locations of the Marie Cem and Roselawn Cem, while the presence of a Drive-in Theater and Greer Downs reflects the mid-century social character of the community.
