About this map

The Washita River meanders through this landscape, marking the natural boundary between McClain and Garvin Counties in central Oklahoma. During the mid-1960s, this area was defined by a balance of agriculture and a robust petroleum industry, evidenced by the Refinery and numerous designated zones like the East Maysville Oil Field and the North Oil Field. The town of Maysville serves as the primary hub, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor runs parallel to Beef Creek.

Tracing the rural sections reveals smaller, localized community centers such as the settlement of Story, complete with the Story Sch and nearby Criner Creek. Genealogists and local historians can locate early burial grounds including Randolph Cem and Maysville Cem. The terrain is also dotted with infrastructure supporting the era's growth, from Radio Towers to a Gravel Pit, reflecting the practical development of these Oklahoma townships.
