1989 Map of Reydon

About this map

The Black Kettle National Grassland dominates this portion of Roger Mills County, illustrating a landscape defined by federal conservation efforts and the transition from prairie to managed range. Near the northern boundary, the Washita River meanders through the terrain, while further south, Skipout Lake serves as a significant water feature with its associated Boat Ramp. The map captures the infrastructure of the late-century energy economy, marked by a dense network of Gas Well sites and underground Pipeline corridors. Historical settlement patterns are visible at Midway and Rankin, alongside the legacy of the Old Railroad Grade which once served the region. For genealogists, the Union Chapel Cem stands as a primary landmark for family history research. The presence of the Cary Ranch Landing Strip and a Radio Tower reflect the modern utility of this wide-open Oklahoma landscape.
