About this map

Haywood and Arpelar anchor this section of Pittsburg County in the mid-1960s, a landscape defined by small rural settlements and a significant military footprint. The southern edge of the sheet is dominated by the U S Naval Ammunition Depot, showing the intersection of local geography with mid-century defense infrastructure. Local history is preserved through numerous rural landmarks, including the Christian Hill Cem and Arpelar Cem, alongside several small churches like Zion Ch near Tannehill Prairie.

Transportation and industry are marked by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line and a network of natural resources. Numerous Gas Wells and Drill Holes are scattered across the terrain, particularly near Grubbs Mountain and Pyle Mountain. The drainage pattern of Coal Creek and the forks of Little Wildhorse Creek illustrate the winding creek-bottom lands that dictated the placement of early homes and pipelines.
