2022 Map of Ravia

About this map

The Washita River meanders through the heart of this landscape, defining the border between Johnston and Marshall counties. This agricultural and riverine region is anchored by the established settlements of Ravia, Russett, and Mannsville, each with its own local history preserved in sites like Ravia Cem and the Russett Cem. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of drainage systems, including Courtney Creek, Mill Creek, and Turkey Creek, which feed into the primary river valley. These waterways likely influenced the placement of early homesteads and the local road network that connects these rural communities. To the south, the expansion of modern infrastructure is evident near the outskirts of Madill, marked by the Madill Municipal Airport. Genealogists will find several family or community landmarks such as Norton Cem and Cedar Hill Cem, providing specific locations for tracing local ancestral roots.
