1957 Map of Bixby

About this map

The Arkansas River corridor defines this portion of the Tulsa Metropolitan Area, where the water flows alongside the Texas and Pacific railroad line. South of the river, the settlement of Bixby is anchored by community landmarks including Shellenbarger Ch, Riverview Ch, and the Bixby Cem. The landscape reflects a mid-century period of resource extraction and rural education, evidenced by the expansive Oil Field and a scattered network of country school sites like Liberty Sch.
