2012 Map of Krebs

About this map

Krebs and its surrounding coal-mining heritage settlements define this portion of Pittsburg County just east of McAlester. This 2012 survey reveals the residential expansion and modern road networks connecting established communities like Alderson, Bache, and Richville. The northeastern quadrant is dominated by the sprawling reaches of Eufaula Lake, where the shoreline meets low-lying terrain drained by Fish Cr and Buck Cr. For genealogists, the map is a vital resource, identifying several distinct burial grounds including High Hill Cem, Carbon Cem, and Calvary Cem. Local landmarks such as Pine Knob and Buck Hill provide vertical relief in an area otherwise characterized by a mix of suburban development and creek-side wetlands. The grid-like layout of Carbon and the established streets of Memory Gardens illustrate the continued importance of these towns within the regional landscape.
