About this map

The Mayfield community in western Oklahoma sits at a crossroads of the southern plains where several vital waterways converge. The agricultural landscape is defined by the winding course of the N Fork Red River and its many tributaries, including Sweetwater Cr, Salt Cr, and Little Turkey Cr. These water sources historically dictated the layout of rural section lines and local transit, as seen in the grid of county roads that navigate the varying terrain.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Mayfield Cem just south of the main settlement, providing a point of reference for families rooted in Beckham County. Further downstream, the Tittle Bridge spans the river, marking a significant local crossing point. This survey reflects the enduring rural character of the region, where naming conventions like W Buffalo Cr speak to the area's natural history and the long-standing importance of reliable river access in a semi-arid climate.
