About this map

The Red River defines the northern reaches of this landscape along the Texas-Oklahoma border, carving through a region defined by agricultural parcels and small rural outposts. The settlement of Monkstown serves as a local hub, situated at the intersection of FM 100 and FM 273. To the north, the small communities of Riverby and Newt stand near the river's floodplain, while Camp Wohaleto is located to the southwest.

Genealogists and local historians will find several landmarks of interest, including the Arch Chapel Cem and Bigsby Cem. The terrain is characterized by numerous seasonal drainage features such as Bois d'Arc Cr, Mud Br, and Tanyard Cr, which feed into the primary river system. Near the southern border, Club Lake provides a notable water feature in an otherwise strictly partitioned landscape of county roads and farm-to-market routes.
