About this map

The town of Eufaula sits at the heart of this landscape, where the North Canadian River and the North Deep Fork Canadian River converge within the rising waters of Lake Eufaula. This 1963 survey, updated with 1991 aerial photography, documents the significant transformation of the terrain into a major reservoir environment. Cultural landmarks such as the West Eufaula Ch and Okfutkee Ch serve as anchors for the local community, while the Normal Reservation 1866 boundary line persists as a historical marker across the shifting shoreline.

Local history is preserved in several burial sites including McIntosh Cem, Evergreen Cem, and Lawson-Williams Cem. Recreation and infrastructure are evident through the presence of Fountainhead State Park, numerous boat ramps, and campgrounds that line the intricate fingers of the lake. The map also captures industrial elements like a Quarry and a local Substation, providing a detailed look at the intersection of traditional settlements and modern utility development.
