About this map

Major County, Oklahoma, in 1974 shows a landscape shaped by agriculture and religious heritage, particularly around the city of Fairview. The area is defined by its rural community structures, including numerous schools and churches. Notable religious sites include the Mennonite Brethren Ch and Mennonite Ch in Fairview, along with the Concord Ch and Saron Ch located in the surrounding countryside. Education was centered at sites like Progressive Sch, Center View Sch, and Plymouth Sch. Transportation and commerce were facilitated by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroads. Natural features such as the Cimarron River and the Glass Mountains within Gloss Mountain State Park provided a distinct geographical backdrop to settlements like Cleo Springs, Orion, and Cheyenne Valley. The Fairview Cemetery stands as a significant site for genealogical research.
