2022 Map of Overbrook

About this map

The Criner Hills rise above the rural landscapes of Love and Carter Counties, marking a transition between Oklahoma's agricultural plains and its rolling creek valleys. The settlement of Overbrook sits along the eastern rail and highway corridor, serving as a focal point for the surrounding ranching and farming operations like Gores Angus Farms. This area preserves several family and community landmarks, including the Criner Cem and McAlester Cem, which provide essential points of reference for local genealogical research. Waterways define the local topography, with Hickory Cr and its tributaries, such as Spring Br and Little Hickory Cr, carving paths through the terrain near the small communities of Marsden and Brock. The network of section line roads, including Sorghum Center RD and Dolese RD, illustrates the persistent grid-based land organization of the region.
