2016 Map of Foyil

About this map

Oologah Lake dominates the northwest corner of this Rogers County landscape, where the prairie meets the wooded hills of northeast Oklahoma. The map documents the northern edge of Claremore and the smaller settlements of Foyil, Bushyhead, Oowala, and Sequoyah. Distinctive geological features rise above the surrounding terrain, including Twin Mounds, Round Mound, and Long Mound, providing clear landmarks for local history and topography. Several streams, such as Sweetwater Cr, Blue Cr, and Dog Cr, wind through the area, defining the drainage patterns toward the reservoir. For genealogists and local historians, the locations of Oowala Cem and Wards Grove Cem provide important reference points for family research. The map also traces the modern road network, including the diagonal path of the main highway and rail corridor through Foyil, which has historically served as a central transit point in the region.
