1964 Map of Lake Murray

About this map

Lake Murray State Park anchors this 1960s landscape, where the intricate shoreline of Lake Murray meets the rolling terrain of Southern Oklahoma. The map documents a transition between protected recreational lands and the surrounding rural infrastructure, featuring the notable Tucker Tower and a dedicated Landing Strip near the lake's western edge. South of the state park boundary, the land is marked by small family and community landmarks, including the Wilson Cem and Legate Cem, alongside the Bethel Union Ch. The southern margin reveals the northern reaches of Lake Texoma where Hickory Creek and Pumpkin Creek converge. Transportation in the region is defined by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor and local routes like Elephant Rock Road, illustrating the intersection of natural resources and 20th-century development in Love County.
