The Red River serves as the winding boundary between Texas and Oklahoma, anchoring a landscape where the river’s oxbows and sloughs contrast with the geometric grid of the Red River Valley’s agriculture. This mid-1980s documentation of Paris and Lamar Point shows the region as a significant transportation and military hub. The northern extent is dominated by the Camp Maxey military installation and the expansive Pat Mayse Lake, while the city of Paris serves as a focal point for the Missouri Pacific and Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroads. Smaller communities like Honey Grove, Roxton, and Clarksville are interspersed with local landmarks such as Paris Junior College and various rural cornerstones like Allens Chapel Cem and Forest Hill Ch. The map provides a look at the transition from the upland woods to the fertile bottomlands near Raymond Gary State Recreation Area.
