About this map

The Arkansas River and the expansive Kaw Lake dominate this 2016 survey along the border of Kay and Osage Counties. This landscape is defined by the transition from the eastern edges of Ponca City to the winding tributaries and reservoirs of the Oklahoma plains. To the north, Thomas Landing and Ponca Cove provide access to the water, while the rural interior is dotted with localized water management features like the Burlingame Number 1 Reservoir.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant landmarks such as Longwood Cem and Sunset Memorial Gardens situated on the outskirts of the city. The map also records the numerous creeks feeding into the larger river system, including Charley Creek, Prettyhair Creek, and Little Drum Creek. The complex road network, from named avenues like Hartford Avenue to rural routes like Possum Hollar Road, illustrates the modern connectivity of this region between the city and the lake.
