2012 Map of Konawa

About this map

Konawa sits near the eastern edge of this 2012 survey, where the grid of county roads meets the winding course of the Canadian River. This landscape reflects a deep intersection of religious history and industrial development, characterized by numerous burial grounds and active extraction fields. The northern territory is marked by the Sacred Heart Abbey Cemetery and Sacred Heart Cemetery, legacy sites of early mission work in Oklahoma. Scattered across the section lines are several oil operations, including the Gray Oil Field and Grayson Oil Field, while the southern reaches near Maxwell are defined by the convergence of Maxwell Creek and Buckhorn Creek as they feed into the river valley. Genealogists will find a high density of family-named landmarks and cemeteries, such as the Violet Springs Cemetery and Lyon's Cemetery, which anchor the local history of Seminole County.
