1966 Map of Luther

About this map

The town of Luther serves as the central hub of this mid-1960s landscape, positioned where the St Louis - San Francisco railroad and Wildhorse Creek meet. This era is defined by a dense concentration of petroleum extraction, with extensive drilling operations marked across the Luther Gas and Oil Field and the West Luther Oil and Gas Field. The transport network shows a transition in progress, featuring the established Missouri - Kansas - Texas rail line alongside the modern Turner Toll road. Genealogists can locate several burial sites surrounding the community, including Luther Cem, St Luke Cem, and the Reunion Cem to the northwest. The terrain is deeply influenced by the winding course of the Deep Fork, which dictates the movement of both local roads and historical property boundaries across the Oklahoma and Lincoln county lines.
