1974 Map of Northeast Muskogee

About this map

The confluence of the Arkansas River, Verdigris River, and Neosho River defines this industrial and educational hub in the mid-1970s. This territory is marked by the distinct boundary of the Shannon and Harris townships, where the Muskogee municipal area extends northward toward the Port of Muskogee. Significant local institutions are well-documented, including Bacone College, the State School for the Blind, and Muskogee High Sch. The map reveals a landscape heavily integrated with transportation infrastructure, from the Muskogee Turnpike to an extensive rail network featuring the Missouri - Kansas - Texas and St Louis - San Francisco lines. For genealogists, several burial grounds are preserved across the quadrangle, such as Green Hill Cemetery, Evergreen Cem, and the Marshall Cem near Tullahassee.
