About this map

Fort Towson and the surrounding Choctaw County landscape are defined by a complex network of tributaries feeding the Kiamichi River basin. This 2019 survey captures the area during a period of modern rural habitation, where historical legacy remains visible in the high density of burial grounds. Significant sites like the Old Fort Towson Cem and Fort Towson Cem sit near the established settlement, while more remote locations such as Box Springs Cem and Schooler Cem are found further north.

The terrain is punctuated by prominent features like Round Mtn and the waters of Schooler Lake. Drainage patterns are intricate, with Gates Cr and Negro Cr winding toward the southern plains. The map also documents the smaller community of Sawyer to the west and the distinct residential cluster of West Fort Towson, providing a detailed look at the local road network including Iron Stob Rd and Chicken Hill Rd.
