2016 Map of Nocona

About this map

Nocona serves as the focal point of this northern Montague County landscape, where the town street grid meets the winding drainages of the Red River valley. The area is characterized by a high density of rural burial grounds, including Eagle Point Cem, Keck Cem, and the Shady Grove Cem, providing significant data for genealogical research. To the northeast, the waters of Lake Nocona dominate the topography, surrounded by the residential developments of Nocona Hills and Leisure Lake, which feature street names reflecting regional Indigenous heritage like Cheyenne Dr and Cherokee Trl. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations such as Benton Hill and Blue Mound, while the hydrology is defined by a network of creeks including Panther Cr, Farmers Cr, and Greenbrier Cr. This 2016 survey also captures modern infrastructure like the Soil Conservation Service Site 9 Reservoir and several other debris basins used for water management.
