About this map

The Waurika Lake reservoir dominates the northern landscape of this Jefferson County region, where the Beaver Creek drainage meets the town of Waurika. This 1980s-era survey documents a landscape of water management and transportation, featuring an extensive aqueduct system and several public recreation areas including Moneka Park and Kiowa Park No 2. Further west, the town of Hastings is detailed alongside its local infrastructure, including several Water Tanks.

The southern portion of the map traces the winding course of the Red River, which defines the Clay Co Jefferson Co border between Oklahoma and Texas. Transportation history is visible through the Oklahoma Kansas and Texas route and an Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the terrain. Rural landmarks such as the Filtration Plant and various cemeteries provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians studying the mid-20th-century development of this borderland area.
