About this map

Blue River winds through the heart of this Bryan County landscape, a region defined by its traditional rural settlements and family cemeteries. The town of Bennington anchors the northern edge, while smaller communities like Wade and Smith-Lee are established further south near the river's lower reaches. These settlements are connected by an extensive grid of section-line roads, such as E2110 Rd and Main St, which mirror the Public Land Survey System boundaries.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, including Labors Cem, McGee Springs Cem, and Spring Hill Cem. Water features such as Cherokee Lake, McIntire Lake, and Page Lake dot the terrain, which is further drained by numerous tributaries like Wolf Cr and Sulphur Cr. The layout of these named landmarks provides a detailed record of the township's organization and the persistence of historic community centers in southeastern Oklahoma.
