About this map

Concharty Mountain and Negry Mountain dominate the local topography in this portion of the Oklahoma hill country, where the borders of Okmulgee, Tulsa, Wagoner, and Muskogee counties converge. The 1971 landscape is a patchwork of rural infrastructure and resource extraction, marked by numerous oil wells and Coal Mines in the northern sections. Natural drainage is defined by the winding paths of Rock Creek and Concharty Creek as they cut through the timbered ridges.

Social life in this era centered on small rural institutions such as Harper Chapel, Morris Chapel, and the Twin Hills Sch. Genealogists may find particular interest in the Bald Hill Cem and other burial sites labeled simply as Cem, which reflect the long-standing family settlements in this part of Okmulgee County. A network of unimproved roads and several high-pressure Pipeline corridors cross the terrain, illustrating the region's role in the state's energy network.
