2016 Map of Okfuskee

About this map

Okfuskee and its surrounding countryside in central Oklahoma are defined by a network of small creeks and flood-control reservoirs along the Okfuskee and Okmulgee County line. This rural landscape is dotted with legacy sites significant to local genealogy, including Okfuskee Cem near the townsite and Nuyaka Cem further south. The terrain is deeply etched by waterways such as Nuyaka Cr, Sixshooter Cr, and Philadelphia Cr, which feed into numerous watershed projects like Okfuskee Tributaries Site N-10 Reservoir. Settlement patterns are sparse, with tiny junctions like Oriental and Woodard Corner marking the intersections of a strictly rectangular section-line road grid. This 2016 survey documents the modern layout of these small communities and the systematic water management infrastructure that has shaped the local agriculture and environment.
