About this map

Old Bennington and the surrounding Bryan County landscape are captured here in a high-resolution 2018 survey, documenting a region defined by its small crossroads settlements and numerous burial sites. For genealogists and local historians, this map provides precise locations for several family and community landmarks, including the Old Bennington Presbyterian Cem and the Armstrong Academy Cem. The rural road network connects isolated clusters like Banty to prominent topographical features such as Tenmile Hill and Sugarloaf Mtn.

The hydrography of the area is particularly dense, with a web of waterways including Sassafras Cr, Rabbit Cr, and the descriptively named Dancing Rabbit Cr. Springs like Banty Spring and Odell Spring further suggest the historical importance of reliable water sources in this part of Oklahoma. These features, along with names like Impson Family Cem, offer a clear look at the enduring legacy of long-standing local families and the institutional history of the Choctaw Nation's academy sites.
