2016 Map of Brooksville

About this map

Brooksville and the southern outskirts of Tecumseh anchor this 2016 topographic study of central Pottawatomie County. The landscape is characterized by the winding course of the Little River, which bisects the area amidst a network of private water holdings and reservoirs. The distribution of small family and community burial grounds, such as Forest Hill Cem and Ruggles Cem, provides a significant inventory for genealogical research in this part of Oklahoma. These sites are tucked away among local thoroughfares like Dancing Stream Spur Rd and Brooksville Rd. The terrain is punctuated by several named impoundments, including the Jesse McGaha Reservoir and Audrey Crown Reservoir, illustrating the modern management of the local watershed and drainage into Dance Cr and Sand Cr.
