About this map

Coffeyville expands westward in the late 1950s, bounded by the Verdigris River and a landscape defined by the historic Indian Boundary. The industrial and transportation identity of the region is evident in the Missouri Pacific railroad lines that intersect at Dearing, serving the numerous Oil Wells scattered across the northern sections. This era shows a community transition, where traditional rural life and modern development meet.

Small local schools like Pierson Sch, Bates Sch, and Meadow Brook Spring Sch remain prominent landmarks alongside established spiritual centers such as Wesley Chapel. The terrain is marked by significant rises including Allin Hill and Big Hill, while the southern reaches near West Coffeyville are characterized by the winding path of Onion Creek. This record captures the precise footprint of Montgomery County's education system and its industrial infrastructure just before significant late-century shifts.
