2010 Map of Bushyhead

About this map

The small community of Bushyhead sits at the intersection of local roads and rail lines, serving as a focal point for this rural landscape in Rogers County. The map reveals a deeply etched drainage system defined by Dog Creek, Pryor Creek, and Osage Creek, which wind through a grid of section-line roads like S 4240 Rd and E 390 Rd. These waterways and the small impoundments like Polone Reservoir dictate the movement and settlement patterns of the area, creating a patchwork of agricultural land and wooded corridors. For those exploring local family history, several prominent burial grounds are documented, including Lone Chapel Cemetery, Washington Cemetery, Dawes Cemetery, and Beck Cemetery. The presence of small, named localities such as Howard and Hisle further illustrates the dispersed nature of habitation across the plains, where the land is organized into a precise network of county routes and rural dwellings.
