1968 Map of Lafayette

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Sans Bois Creek meanders through this portion of Haskell County, defining a landscape shaped by both natural drainage and mid-century industrial development. The small settlement of Lafayette serves as a central point, surrounded by evidence of the region's energy and mineral history, including numerous Gas Wells, a Strip Mine, and the Choctaw Mine. To the east, Seven Devils Mountain rises above the creek valley, while the northern edge is marked by the expansion of the Robert S Kerr Reservoir and several smaller bodies of water like Lake John Wells and Lone Star Steel Lake. Local genealogy and community life are grounded in landmarks such as Lafayette Ch, Siloam Spring Ch, and Old Panther Cem. The presence of an (Old) RR Grade and an Air Shaft further underscores the area's transition from early mining and rail transport to the water management projects of the 1960s.
