About this map

The Canadian River cuts through the heart of this Oklahoma landscape, its wide channel and shifting banks defining the local topography between Seminole and Pontotoc counties. The town of Konawa serves as the primary settlement, positioned at the intersection of a dense network of sectional roads and the Oklahoma state highway system. This region is heavily characterized by its energy production history, visible through the presence of the Gray Oil Field, Grayson Oil Field, Bebee Oil Field, and Sledge Oil Field, which underscore the industrial importance of the area in the early 21st century.

Family researchers will find significant value in the mapped locations of Vista Cemetery, Maxwell Cemetery, and Konawa Cemetery, while the hydrography is notably marked by several water control structures including Oknoname 123001 Dam and Salt Creek Site 46 Dam. Tributaries like Preacher Creek, Young Creek, and Jumper Creek thread through the rural parcels, illustrating the drainage patterns that have influenced land use and settlement since the territory's founding.
