About this map

Tenkiller Lake dominates the southern landscape of this Oklahoma survey, where the winding Illinois River cuts through a series of named ridges and hollows. The area around Park Hill Mountain is marked by a deep historical footprint, evidenced by the clustered locations of Park Hill Cemetery, Worster Cemetery, and Ross Cemetery. These sites, along with family-named features like Ross Hollow and Manes Hollow, provide significant anchor points for genealogical research in Cherokee County.

Recreational and scout camps, including Camp Darby and Turner Ford Camp, sit along the river's edge, while the terrain transitions into more prominent landmarks such as Alum Bluff and Mahaney Mountain. The map details a transition from the structured road network near the Goodman Branch and Park Hill Branch to the more varied topography of Dripping Spring Hollow and Big Hollow as the elevation drops toward the reservoir.
