About this map

Griffin Memorial Hospital Annex serves as a prominent landmark in this 1958 landscape on the boundary of Cleveland and Pottawatomie counties. The area is defined by a dense network of small rural settlements and institutional sites, including Mc Kiddyville and Eason. The terrain is marked by numerous water bodies such as Dahlgren Lake, Conklin Lake, and Smith Lake, alongside several scattered oil wells that indicate the energy production of the era.

Local history is well-preserved through the inclusion of several community hubs, such as Shiloh Church, Rose Hill Church, and the Spring Creek School. The map provides specific locations for family-named and community cemeteries, including Red Oak Cemetery and Metcalf Cemetery. These features, alongside the Sewage Disposal plant and Microwave Tower, reflect the mid-century infrastructure and social fabric of this Oklahoma countryside.
