About this map

The community of Ahloso and the neighboring settlements of Latta and Lawrence define the human landscape of this area of Pontotoc County. This region is characterized by a sophisticated water management network, evidenced by numerous named dams and reservoirs including the Upper Clear Boggy Creek Site 38 Reservoir and several Oknoname structures. These features indicate the critical role of flood control and water storage in the local agricultural economy.

Genealogists and local historians can find the Puller Cemetery situated north of the reservoir system. The landscape is naturally divided by significant drainage patterns, most notably the North Fork Jack Fork Creek and the South Fork Jack Fork Creek, which converge and flow toward the Bois d'Arc Creek in the south. The presence of the Lakewood Golf Course near Ahloso suggests a shift toward recreational land use in the modern era.
