1989 Map of Prentiss

About this map

Prentiss sits at the intersection of rural Beckham County life, where the Oklahoma landscape is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Red River. This 1980s-era topographic representation reveals an economy deeply tied to energy extraction, with extensive gas fields, numerous Gas Wells, and an intricate network of pipelines crossing the territory. The map documents the social anchors of the rural population, such as the Bulo Community Center and New Life Ch, which serve the surrounding farming and ranching community. The drainage patterns of the southern plains are clearly visible, with W Buffalo Creek, Middle Buffalo Creek, and Starvation Creek cutting through the terrain toward the river. For those tracing regional history, the presence of the Pioneer Cem in the southern portion of the quadrangle offers a fixed point of reference for early settlement roots in this portion of Western Oklahoma.
