About this map

The town of Garber serves as the central hub of this Garfield County landscape, which by the early 1980s was defined by its extensive Oil and Gas Field operations. This energy-producing infrastructure is woven into the rural fabric of the Allison and Grant townships, where active and old well sites sit alongside essential local landmarks like the Water Tank and electrical Substation.

Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds, including Garber Lutheran Cem south of town and Blackbear Cem in the southeastern corner near the winding banks of Black Bear Creek. The era's development is further signaled by a major highway section noted as being Under Construction, while industrial remnants like a Shale Pit and Gravel Pit suggest the ongoing extraction and infrastructure maintenance that supported this northern Oklahoma community.
