2019 Map of Mingo

About this map

Bird Creek and its southern tributaries, including Mingo Creek and Spunky Creek, define the northern drainage of this landscape as it meets the urban expansion of Tulsa. The map details a complex transition from high-density suburban development to the industrial and natural features of the northeast Oklahoma plains. Significant transportation hubs are prominent, including the large expanse of the Tulsa International Airport and the smaller Harvey Young Airport. The industrial character of the area is underscored by the BNSF Railway and a large Rock Quarry near Garnett. Genealogists will find interest in localized burial grounds such as Harlow Cem, Grayson Cem, and Denbo Cem, while the terrain is marked by distinct rises like Hooper Hill and Goat Hill near the Catoosa border.
