About this map

Meridian and the surrounding rural landscape of Logan County are captured here during a period of modern agricultural and water management development. The area is defined by an extensive network of flood control structures, specifically the Bear Fall Coon Creek reservoir system, which includes numerous numbered sites like Bear Fall Coon Creek Site 6 Reservoir and Bear Fall Coon Cr Site 24 Reservoir. These engineered water bodies are interspersed among traditional farm-to-market roads and long-standing rural hubs such as Iconium, Merrick, and Shiloh.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the preservation of numerous family and community burial grounds. From the Union Hill Cem in the north to the Iowa Mission Cem in the southeast, these landmarks provide a clear record of early settlement patterns. The landscape is drained by several tributaries, including Bear Cr, Fall Cr, and Walnut Cr, which continue to shape the topography of this central Oklahoma region.
