1970 Map of Morris
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Morris Oil Field dominates the central landscape of this Oklahoma survey, highlighting an era when petroleum extraction defined the local economy alongside the St Louis - San Francisco railroad. The settlement of Morris serves as the primary hub, while smaller communities like Grayson, Hitchita, and Eram are documented with their surrounding sections of the Okmulgee and McIntosh county line. Genealogical value is high throughout the quadrangle, with several distinct burial grounds including Morris Cem, Indian Cem, and Sacred Heart Cem mapped in detail. To the southeast, the terrain transitions toward the banks of the Eufaula Reservoir, where the drainage of Grave Creek and Cussetah Creek meet the rising waters. This document captures the intersection of industrial land use, from numerous oil wells and gas wells to the traditional rural infrastructure of churches and community cemeteries.
