1956 Map of Taupa

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Blue Beaver Creek and West Cache Creek carve through the Comanche County landscape, defining the topography of this region southwest of the Fort Sill Military Reservation during the mid-20th century. The settlement of Taupa sits along the St Louis San Francisco railroad line, while the nearby town of Cache occupies the northwestern corner of the quadrangle. The map reveal a rural social fabric organized around local gathering places and family burial grounds, such as Deyo Memorial Chapel and the adjacent Deyo Cemetery. Local infrastructure is further marked by Wesley Chapel and Pecan Cemetery, illustrating the distribution of early Oklahoma homesteading communities before the expansion of more modern highway networks. A small Pit near the center of the sheet suggests localized quarrying activity amidst the primarily agricultural and creek-bottom terrain.
