1975 Map of Tryon North

About this map

The Cimarron River carves a wide arc through this central Oklahoma landscape, defining the boundary between the Perkins and Cimarron townships. The mid-1970s landscape is marked by the persistent influence of energy and transport, with several Oil Wells and a Drill Hole scattered across the terrain. Rural life centers on small hubs like Tryon, Agra, and the settlement of Cottingham. The importance of local heritage is visible in the distribution of family and communal burial grounds, including the Iowa Indian Cem, Parrott Cem, and Osage Cem. Significant infrastructure such as the Missouri - Kansas - Texas rail line and various Pipelines cut across the drainage basins of Dugout Creek and Sand Creek, reflecting the region's historical role as a corridor for commodities and transit.
