1960 Map of Herd

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Oil and gas development defines this 1960 landscape within Osage County, where numerous Oil Wells and Gas Wells are scattered throughout the Caney and Strike Axe districts. The settlement of Herd sits along the northern edge, connected to the surrounding topography by an Old Railroad Grade that once facilitated the movement of resources through the region. In the south, the establishment of Osage Hills State Park protects a portion of the terrain near Horseshoe Bend. The hydrology is marked by several small impoundments including Deer Lake, Sunset Lake, and Spring Lake, which break the drainage patterns of Rock Creek and Mission Creek. Local history is anchored by the Bigheart locality and a rural Cem, providing tangible points of interest for genealogists tracking family roots in this corner of the state during the mid-twentieth century.
