About this map

The Cimarron River carves through the northern landscape of this region, flanked by the prominent Cimarron Bluff and several smaller tributaries including Dugout Cr and Headquarters Cr. This area on the border of Payne and Lincoln counties maintains a rural character defined by section-line roads and scattered agricultural settlements. In the south, the town of Tryon is established along the section grid, while the community of Agra sits near the eastern edge.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several rural burial sites, such as Old George Cem and Osage Cem, which reflect the early settlement patterns of central Oklahoma. The map also captures the local water infrastructure, showing several numbered reservoirs like 08117 Reservoir and 11909 Reservoir, alongside larger features like the southwestern corner of Cushing Lake. These details provide a clear view of the land use and hydrology of the territory as it appeared in the mid-2010s.
