2009 Map of Francis

About this map

The town of Francis sits at the northern edge of this landscape, where the local road network fans out across the rolling terrain of Pontotoc County. The geography is defined by a dense system of waterways, including the winding Muddy Boggy Creek, Sincere Creek, and the Canadian River visible in the northeast corner. This 2009 survey reveals a rural area with numerous family-named landmarks and small-scale infrastructure, such as the Warren Hogue Dam and Engel Lake Dam. Genealogists will find this map particularly useful for identifying the distribution of local burial grounds, including the Kilcrease Cemetery, Oakman Cemetery, and Fivemile Cemetery. The road system, with names like McCalls Church Rd and Cash Ranch Rd, reflects the agricultural and residential development of the early 21st century before modern urbanization reached this part of Oklahoma.
