For all intents and purposes, New Mannford is really the same as Mannford. People sometimes refer to Mannford as New Mannford because the original town of Mannford lies under Lake Keystone at the point where the channel of the Cimarron River meets the channel of the Arkansas River.
The entire town of Mannford was moved to the south in the 1960's when they dammed up the Arkansas River to build Lake Keystone. There is a state park called New Mannford which by its very name draws attention to the episode.
