About this map

Hart sits at the nexus of several creek systems where the rolling terrain of southern Oklahoma is defined by intricate drainage patterns. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape shaped by water management, notably the series of upstream flood control structures including Sandy Cr Site 16 Reservoir and Sandy Cr Site 14 Reservoir. These reservoirs are part of a larger network managing the flow of the Canadian Sandy Cr and its numerous tributaries like Little Canadian Sandy Cr and Cherokee Sandy Cr.

For family historians, the map identifies local landmarks such as Corley Cem and Hart Cem, providing precise locations for these rural burial grounds. The map also delineates the meeting of three counties—Garvin, Murray, and Pontotoc—near the southern and eastern margins. The section lines and established road network, such as Co RD 1570 and e1640 RD, follow the traditional township and range grid, illustrating the enduring agricultural organization of this Oklahoma interior.
