About this map

The Red River defines the border between Texas and Oklahoma in this 2010 topographic survey, winding through a landscape of agrarian settlements and riparian bottomlands. Rural communities like Belleville and Petersburg serve as local hubs, while the Courtney Post Office marks a persistent civic center for the surrounding ranchland. The area's complex burial history is well-documented through numerous family and community sites, including Mayfield Cemetery, Bourland Cemetery, and Liberty Chapel Cemetery.

Industry and water management shape the modern character of the terrain. The Illinois Bend Oil Field indicates active energy extraction in the southern portion of the quadrangle, while the construction of Oknoname 067015 Dam and its reservoir provides critical water resources. From the namesake Spanish Fort to the small crossing at Illinois Bend, the map details a region where traditional land use and natural watercourses like Cottonwood Creek and Village Creek remain central to the geography.
