2012 Map of Okmulgee South

About this map

The Deep Fork river system dominates the lower half of this landscape south of Okmulgee, winding through a complex network of wetlands and tributaries like Burgess Cr and Montezuma Cr. The map captures a high density of historical sites essential for genealogical research, including several large burial grounds such as Oakwood Cem, Woodlawn Cem, and Okmulgee Cem clustered near the northern boundary. Further south, the rural character is defined by smaller communities and their corresponding landmarks, from the settlement at Schulter to the eastern community of Grayson. The terrain transitions from the developed street grids of Okmulgee's southern edge to the low-lying reaches of Flag Lake and the distinct elevation of Elephant Knob, illustrating the varied topography of Okmulgee County. Notable rural cemeteries like Little Cussetah Cem and Big Cussetah Cem provide specific points of interest for local family historians.
