1971 Map of Beland

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Beland sits at the crossing of the St Louis San Francisco and Texas and Pacific railroads, serving as a focal point in a landscape defined by small rural congregations and the legacy of early Oklahoma oil development. This 1971 survey captures an active Oil Field and the pipelines that supported the regional energy economy during the late 20th century. For those researching local families, the map provides precise locations for the Doyle Cem and Brown Cem, as well as several country churches including Wilson Chapel, Mt Pleasant Ch, and Cloud Creek Ch. The presence of the Taft Institution Lake in the northeast corner and the land divisions of Sutton and Agency reflect the institutional and administrative history of Muskogee County. Drainage follows the winding paths of Cloud Creek and Pecan Creek, which cut through the undulating terrain near Baucum Hill.
