About this map

Thomas serves as the primary municipal anchor in this western Oklahoma survey, situated at the boundary of Custer and Blaine Counties. The landscape is defined by the sweeping course of the Canadian River in the northeast corner and a series of smaller drainage systems including Bear Cr, Little Deer Cr, and Deer Cr. A notable geological feature is Sugar Loaf Mound, which rises prominently above the surrounding agricultural sections.

Genealogical and local history is well-represented through several rural burial grounds scattered across the township lines, including Mound Olive Cem, Saint Johns Cem, Zion Cem, and the Pleasant View Mennonite Cem. The map illustrates the infrastructure of a modern rural hub, from the Thomas Municipal Airport to several significant water management sites such as Kippinberger Reservoir and B Wickham Number 2 Reservoir. The grid of county roads provides clear access to the scattered farmsteads and religious sites that characterize the regional heritage.
