1972 Map of Brooksville

About this map

The Little River and Sand Creek basins define this central Oklahoma landscape south of Tecumseh, where early 1970s land use reflects a mix of agriculture and institutional presence. At the northern edge, the Girls Town (State School) occupies a significant area near the Corporate Boundary of the neighboring town. This survey provides exceptional detail for genealogists, recording numerous small burial grounds including Brooksville Cem, Ruggles Cem, and Prairie View Cem. An Old Railroad Grade cuts diagonally across the western sections, marking the path of former transit lines that once connected these rural townships. The settlement of Brooksville sits central to this network, while scattered Oil Wells and a Gaging Station indicate the ongoing industrial and environmental management of the Burnett and Moore regions during this era.
