About this map

Medford serves as the central hub of this northern Oklahoma landscape, where the street grid transitions into an expansive network of sectional roads and drainage systems. The town is flanked by essential community infrastructure, including the Medford Municipal Airport to the southwest and the Numa Oil Field to the east, illustrating the dual importance of aviation and petroleum to the local economy.

A remarkably high density of burial sites suggests a complex settlement history for this portion of Grant County. Genealogists will find interest in the diverse ethnic and religious heritages represented by the Czecko Slovak Cem, Medford Mennonite Cem, and Calvary Cem. These sites are distributed across a prairie defined by the meandering paths of Bullwacker Cr, Cottonwood Cr, and Polecat Cr, which cut through the agricultural blocks defined by roads like n2980 RD and e0145 RD.
