2013 Map of Putnam

About this map

Putnam and Sunset anchor this section of Dewey County, where the plains are etched by a dense network of seasonal and perennial waterways. This 2013 topographic survey captures the area's rural character, dominated by north-south section roads like n2280 RD and a hydraulic landscape defined by Deer Cr and Horse Cr. Local genealogy is anchored by the Merck Cem and Liberty Cem, which sit alongside the quiet grid of county roads. Human-made water management is evident in the presence of the Barnitz Cr Site 15a Reservoir and Ernst Reservoir, illustrating how this agricultural region harnesses the intermittent flow of local creeks like Beaver Cr and Sorter Cr. The map provides a clear picture of Oklahoma's high plains settlement pattern, where small communities remain connected by a geometric road network over undulating terrain.
