About this map

Captain Creek and its branches, West Captain Creek and East Captain Creek, carve through the rural terrain of Lincoln County in this mid-1960s survey. The landscape is defined by its small community hubs, featuring a high concentration of cemeteries including Lutheran Cem, Newby Cem, and Rossville Cem. These landmarks, alongside the White Rock School and Wilson Chapel, reflect the established social fabric of the area's unincorporated settlements.

Evidence of Oklahoma's petroleum industry is visible through numerous Oil Wells and a major Pipeline cutting across the sections. The map preserves the locations of early local institutions like the Captain Creek Community Center and the small cluster at Fowler. Notable boundaries for Bryan, North Wichita, and South Wichita are also marked, providing a clear view of the regional land divisions and drainage into Quapaw Creek and Wildhorse Creek.
