About this map

The Neosho River meanders south through Ottawa County, widening into the upper reaches of the Grand Lake of the Cherokees. This 2016 survey provides a precise view of the interface between the growing urban center of Miami and the surrounding agricultural bottomlands. The northern residential expansion of North Miami and Commerce is clearly defined, with the grid-pattern streets of the city giving way to the expansive wetlands and river plains.

Genealogists and local researchers can locate the Grand Army of the Republic Cem and trace the exact locations of smaller settlements like Dawes. The map highlights the regional infrastructure including Miami Municipal Airport and the Stepps Ford Bridge. Notable geological features such as Potato Hill and several drainage systems like Fourmile Creek and Cow Creek illustrate the natural topography that shaped the development of this corner of Oklahoma.
