About this map

The Arkansas River defines the eastern boundary of this landscape, its wide channel and shifting sandbars flanking the town of Haskell. Located in Muskogee County, the area is characterized by a dense network of sectional roads and small watercourses like Ash Cr, Salt Cr, and Coal Cr that feed into the river basin. The town center of Haskell is laid out on a grid featuring streets such as Center St and Duncan St, served by the small Haskell Airport nearby.

Genealogists will find significant local history in the numerous burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including Gibson Cem, Phyllis Cem, Mt Zion Cem, and Friday Cem. Outside the main town, smaller settlements like Jamesville near the river and Midway to the southwest illustrate the rural residential patterns of early 21st-century Oklahoma. The presence of Haskell Lake and the Cane Cr Site 4 Reservoir highlights the importance of water management in this agricultural and prairie region.
