About this map

The Little River bisects this landscape of Central Oklahoma, where agriculture and early energy development defined the local economy during the mid-twentieth century. The community of Macomb serves as the primary hub in the southeast, while the hamlet of Morvin sits further north. Rural life is anchored by institutions like the Willow View Sch and Highland Sch, alongside churches and family burial grounds including Mars Hill Cem and Prospect Cem.

Substantial petroleum production is evident through the Brinton Oil Field, Morvin Oil Field, and Burnett Oil Field, with numerous Oil Wells and pumping stations dotting the hillsides. The complex drainage network of Jim Creek, Bullfrog Creek, and Dance Creek highlights the natural terrain that shaped early settlement patterns before modern infrastructure consolidated these smaller rural districts.
