1931 Map of Drumright

About this map

Drumright and its surrounding oil fields define this early twentieth-century landscape, where industrial Oil Tanks sit alongside a dense network of country schools. The map preserves a moment when the region's economy was transitioning between the early petroleum boom and established agriculture, as seen in the numerous education centers like Happy Valley Sch and Antioch Sch that dot the countryside. A significant historical feature is the Indian Territory Oklahoma Boundary, which runs north-to-south through the center of the sheet, marking the older divisions of the land.
