About this map

Clearview serves as the focal point of this Okfuskee County landscape, surrounded by an extensive network of petroleum extraction sites that defined the local economy during the mid-20th century. Numerous named zones, including the NW Clearview Oil and Gas Field and the Lyons-Quinn Oil and Gas Field, illustrate the dense industrial footprint across the region. These fields are interspersed with local landmarks like Hickory Ridge and the Philadelphia Creek valley.

Genealogical interest is found in the community's spiritual and memorial sites, such as Creek Chapel, Springfield Ch, and the Clearview Cem. Traces of earlier transportation infrastructure are visible through the Old Railroad Grade winding near Salt Creek, marking a shift in the way goods moved through these Oklahoma hills. The presence of smaller features like a Gravel Pit and secondary Cem markers provide specific points of interest for researchers tracing historical property boundaries or family land use.
