1963 Map of Harrisburg

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Palacine Oil Field and the Northwest Palacine Oil Field dominate this portion of Stephens County, reflecting the deep-rooted energy economy of south-central Oklahoma. The landscape is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of West Mud Creek and East Mud Creek, which converge south of the small settlement of Harrisburg. The map reveals a rural social infrastructure centered on small community landmarks, including Fairview Ch and the Weaver Chapel complex with its associated Weaver Chapel Cem. The concentration of oil fields, including the West Velma Oil Field near the eastern edge, illustrates how petroleum extraction integrated with existing land use. Revision data from 1976, marked in purple, shows the continued development of roads and industrial sites like the Gravel Pits in the decades following the initial 1960s photogrammetric survey.
