About this map

Bellvue serves as a central hub in this Creek County landscape, where the rural grid is defined by a dense network of watercourses and flood control structures. The drainage pattern is complex, featuring the winding paths of Polecat Cr and Figure Eight Cr, alongside numerous engineered water bodies such as Little Deep Fork Cr Site 35 Reservoir and Little Deep Fork Cr Site 30 Reservoir. These reservoirs reflect modern water management efforts within the larger Deep Fork watershed.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Johnson Cem, tucked near the distinctive terrain of Hoot Owl Hollow, as well as the Harlinsville Cem further south. The map documents a transition from traditional creek-side nomenclature, like Mosquito Cr and Winkey Br, to the systematic numbering of the county road system, illustrating the evolution of local navigation and land division in Oklahoma.
