About this map

Haywood and Arpelar serve as the primary nodes of settlement in this Oklahoma landscape, situated where the terrain transitions from the upland heights of Pyle Mtn and Grubb Mtn down into the creek valleys. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the westward-flowing Big Wildhorse Cr and the centrally located Coal Cr, which likely shaped the placement of early homesteads and transportation routes.

Genealogists will find a wealth of local history in the numerous burial sites scattered across the township, such as Zion Missionary Baptist Cem and Christian Hill Cem. The map also captures the lingering influence of rural industry and agriculture near Tannehill Prairie, while more modern infrastructure is evidenced by the numerous oil well sites and the crossing of Twin Brg. These details provide a clear picture of a community rooted in its geographical landmarks and family-named roads.
