1964 Map of Tipton SE

About this map

The confluence of Otter Creek and the North Fork of the Red River dominates this southwestern Oklahoma landscape during the mid-1960s. Surveyed just before significant land-use changes, the map reveals a rural community anchored by social and religious centers such as the Pleasant Valley Ch and the nearby Pleasant Valley Community Hall. The terrain transitions from the low-lying river bottoms to the elevated areas of He Adrick and Hunter, with the St Louis San Francisco railroad cutting through the northwest corner. This era is characterized by an organized agricultural grid, punctuated by local infrastructure like the Pleasant Valley Landing Strip and the Center View Cem, providing a detailed record of the families and institutions established along the Jackson and Tillman County line.
