1985 Map of Taylor

About this map

The Red River marks the southern extent of this landscape, defining the state boundary between Oklahoma and Texas. Near the center of this survey, the settlement of Taylor serves as a local landmark amidst a terrain defined by its watercourses and petroleum industry. The northern reaches are dominated by the West Cache Creek Oil Field, where numerous drill holes and wells point to the region's mid-century economic focus. The hydrology is complex, featuring the convergence of West Cache Creek and East Cache Creek into the larger Cache Creek, which winds its way toward the river through Cotton County. Small-scale industrial activity is further indicated by scattered Gravel Pits and the presence of Bird Cr in the southwest corner.
