About this map

Beland and the nearby settlement of Flusche anchor this Muskogee County landscape, where the rural grid is defined by a dense network of sectional roads and the meandering courses of Pecan Cr and Cloud Cr. The map reveals a land heavily managed for water resources, featuring several significant impoundments including Taft Lake Number 3 and the Cane Cr Site 27 Reservoir. These water bodies, alongside Cane Cr 29 Reservoir, illustrate the modern hydraulic engineering common in this part of Oklahoma.

Genealogists will find notable burial sites such as Doyle Cem in the north and Brown Cem further west, providing essential landmarks for tracing family history in this agricultural corridor. The terrain is largely level, though Baucum Hill rises as a distinct elevation in the east. The primary transportation artery, Route 62 64, cuts across the northern section, linking these smaller communities to the broader regional economy.
