About this map

Muddy Boggy Creek defines the landscape of this 1960s Oklahoma study, winding in tight oxbows through a series of managed lands and small rural settlements. The map highlights the extensive footprint of the Mc Leod Honor Farm, which includes the Mc Leod Honor Farm Cutoff and local agricultural sites like the Honor Farm itself. These institutional lands are surrounded by several small communities and landmarks, including the scattered homes of Darwin and Old Farris.

Local social life is marked by the presence of the Darwin Ch and Center Point Sch, while the terrain is punctuated by small bodies of water such as Hopena Lake, Clear Lake, and Louie Lake. The convergence of Atoka, Pushmataha, and Choctaw county lines provides a rare look at the jurisdictional boundaries in this wooded region, where drainage from Potubbi Creek and Caney Creek feeds the larger river system.
