2012 Map of Shrewder

About this map

The Salt Fork Red River meanders across this rural section of Harmon County, Oklahoma, defining a landscape dominated by agricultural sections and creek drainage systems. Small settlements like Shrewder and Ron serve as local anchors in a region where water management is critical, as evidenced by the Claude Seymour Reservoir and Danny E Hill Reservoir. The network of section line roads, such as E 1510 RD and N 1770 RD, creates a rigid grid over the natural bends of Turkey Cr and Cave Cr. Genealogists may find interest in the Tea Cross Cem, a historic site located near the western edge of the quadrangle. This map captures the intersection of natural river geography and the deliberate human organization of the Oklahoma panhandle region.
