2019 Map of Adair

About this map

Adair serves as the central hub for this corner of Mayes County, where the grid of rural roads meets the primary north-south transportation corridor. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Pryor Creek and its tributaries, including Bitter Cr and Osage Cr, which cut through the undulating terrain of the Cherokee Nation. Local history is etched into the land at landmarks like Jesse James Hill and the topographic break known as Whiskey Gap. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of several community burial grounds, from the centrally located Adair Cem to the outlying Hope Cem near Pleasant and Rider Cem to the west. Smaller settlements such as Patton in the northeast and Green in the south indicate the persistent rural community structure of the late 2010s, connected by a network of established section-line roads like Strang RD and e0380 RD.
