2009 Map of Cleveland

About this map

The Arkansas River carves a wide path through this landscape, separating the town of Cleveland in the west from the smaller settlement of Osage in the east. This 2009 survey highlights a region deeply defined by the energy industry, with several significant petroleum operations including the Boston Oil Field, Cleveland Oil Field, and Osage City Oil Field dotting the terrain. The presence of these fields alongside the river and its tributaries, such as Mechetsemoi Creek and Scanlon Creek, suggests a long history of industrial activity integrated into the river valley. Local heritage is preserved in numerous burial grounds, including Woodland Cemetery and the Bear Creek Cemetery, which serve as vital landmarks for genealogists. To the south of the main settlement, the Cleveland Municipal Airport and infrastructure like the Oknoname 113100 Dam reflect the modern development of this Pawnee County river corridor.
