1967 Map of Fittstown

About this map

The West Fittstown Oil Field dominates the northern landscape of this Oklahoma survey, highlighting the energy production that shaped Pontotoc County during the mid-20th century. In the hills to the south, the Blue River and its tributaries carve through the terrain, sustaining small settlements like Franks and the northern reaches of Gibbs. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by rural landmarks such as Sunshine Ch, Franks Cem, and Brown Cem, while the industrial footprint is visible through numerous Quarries and a local Gravel Pit. Notable water features include Byrds Mill Spring and a clearly marked Aqueduct, illustrating the infrastructure required to manage water resources in this part of the state. The map also delineates the Pontotoc and Johnston County line, capturing a rural landscape defined by both its natural hydrology and extractive industry.
