About this map

The Neosho River and Spring River converge in this northeastern Oklahoma landscape, feeding the northern reaches of Grand Lake O' the Cherokees. The river system defines the local geography, creating distinctive landforms such as Mudeater Bend and Moccasin Bend. To the northwest, the edge of Miami is visible along Tar Creek, while smaller communities like Ottawa, Moreville, and Ogeechee are distributed across the rural road grid.

Genealogists can find several burial sites including Glen Abbey Memorial Gardens, Bland Cem, and Berry Cem. The map illustrates a transition from the structured residential streets of Fairland at the southern edge to the open, water-dominated terrain of the river bottoms and creeks, including Little Elm Creek and Council Hollow Cr. This area represents the intersection of the region's early settlements with the modern hydrological landscape created by the Grand Lake reservoir system.
