About this map

The town of Mounds and the southwestern edge of Glenpool anchor this early 1970s landscape, which is heavily marked by the region's energy economy. The industrial footprint of the Oil Field is visible throughout, with numerous Oil Wells and a persistent Pipeline network cutting through the drainage basins of Duck Creek and Checkerboard Creek. Local infrastructure is defined by the St Louis-San Francisco railroad line, which runs north-south through the center of the survey.

Genealogists will find significant value in the detailed plotting of local community centers, including Oakwood Cem, New Post Oak Cem, and Oakdale Cem. Religious life is documented at New Bethel Ch and the Church of God. The terrain is characterized by modest elevations like Lake Boren and Lake Jackson, while larger industrial designations such as Pascoe Field and Beggs indicate the broader economic zoning of Creek, Okmulgee, and Tulsa Counties.
