About this map

Sans Bois Creek meanders through this portion of Haskell County, defining the drainage patterns of the rural landscape south of Stigler. The area is marked by a series of water management projects, including Stigler Lake and the larger Lake John Wells, both held by namesake dams. These reservoirs provide a contrast to the natural topography of Shropshire Valley and the winding course of Mule Creek further south.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant landmarks such as Antioch Cemetery and the Old Panther Cemetery, providing anchor points for family research in the region. The map also records the site of the Choctaw Mine, reflecting the coal mining history of this part of Oklahoma. In the southeast, Lone Star Steel Lake serves as a reminder of the industrial influence on the local geography during the early 21st century.
