1968 Map of Durant North

About this map

The Indian Treaty Boundary cuts vertically across this landscape, marking a historical divide north of Durant in Bryan County. The city itself occupies the southeast corner, characterized by the campus of Southeastern State College and a grid of residential streets like Waco St and Dallas St. This late-1960s survey documents a rural environment punctuated by the St Louis - San Francisco railroad and the Blue River valley. To the north, the terrain transitions into the Twelvemile Prairie and the rugged heights of Myrick, while smaller communities such as Brown and Kiersey remain connected by the Folsom Highway. Local history is preserved in the locations of Cox Chapel Ch, Mt Zion Ch, and the isolated Keffer Cem, alongside evidence of regional industry such as multiple Gravel Pits and scattered Oil Wells.
