1893 Map of Buggy Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1893

About this map

The Wichita Reservation dominates this 1893 landscape, characterized by the intricate drainage systems that feed into the Canadian River. Surveyed by H.B. Blair under the direction of J.W. Powell, the map captures a pivotal moment in the territory's history just as formal county boundaries were being established. The presence of an Indian Village and a Stage Stand near the river suggests a corridor of movement and transition along the Canadian Co. Boundary Line. The terrain is defined by deeply eroded creek beds, including Buggy Creek and Face Creek, which create a complex network of ridges and ravines typical of the region before modern development. This advance sheet serves as a primary record of pre-statehood topography, documenting the interaction between Indigenous lands and the encroaching administrative structures of the late nineteenth century.
