About this map

The Blue River and its numerous tributaries, including Little Blue Cr and Sandy Cr, carve a complex drainage pattern through this section of south-central Oklahoma. The landscape is dotted with natural springs such as Deadman Spring, Viola Spring, and Houghtubby Spring, which historically dictated the placement of early homesteads and roads. Many of these thoroughfares still carry family and descriptive names, including Harris Ranch Rd, McIntosh Rd, and Buzzard Rd.

Genealogists will find significant value in the mapped locations of local burial grounds like Pontotoc Cem, Seeley Cem, and Pilgrim Cem. The settlement of Pontotoc sits in the northwest, while the town of Bromide is situated in the east, just across the border between Johnston Co and Coal Co. The map also captures several man-made reservoirs, such as Delaware Cr Site 8 Reservoir, indicating the managed water resources of the modern era.
