2015 Map of Akron

About this map

The Walnut River meanders southward through this portion of Cowley County, shaping the local topography and drainage patterns for tributaries like Crooked Cr and Little Dutch Cr. The landscape is defined by the historic transition from the Cherokee Strip in the north to the established farming communities further south. Small settlements like Akron and Dale are situated along the river valley, while Kellogg sits near the southwestern edge of the quadrangle. The map reveals the critical infrastructure of the mid-2010s, notably the Oxford Municipal Airport and a dense network of rural roads that connect family-named plots. Local history is anchored by the Akron Cem and Mount Vernon Cem, which serve as quiet landmarks of the region's early settlement era.
