About this map

Locust Grove serves as the central hub of this Mayes County landscape, situated at the intersection of a detailed local road network and modern infrastructure. The map reveals a high density of ancestral landmarks, with several family-named burial grounds like Bryan- Lindsey Cem, Haner Cem, and McLain Cem scattered across the surrounding sections. These small, localized cemeteries provide essential touchstones for genealogical research in northeastern Oklahoma.

The northern reaches are defined by the Neosho River, where Mayes Bridge crosses near the residential cluster of Sportsmen Acres. To the south, the terrain becomes more dissected by drainage systems like Snake Cr and Spring Cr, which pass through smaller settlements including Ballou and Iron Post. The grid of county roads, such as n4390 RD and e0550 RD, connects these outlying communities to the commercial core of Locust Grove, illustrating the persistent rural settlement patterns of the region.
