About this map

Muddy Boggy Creek and its many tributaries, including Caney Boggy Creek and Sweetwater Creek, dominate this central Oklahoma landscape within Jackson and Haskell townships. The topography is defined by the complex drainage patterns of these winding waterways, which converge and branch across the terrain. The small community of Parker serves as a local landmark in the northern portion of the quadrangle.

Local history and genealogy are preserved through small rural institutional sites, such as the Pine Sch and the adjacent Pine Cem. To the south, the McCarty Cem sits near a modern utility corridor marked by a prominent Pipeline. This map captures a rural Oklahoma setting where the economy and settlement patterns were dictated by the creek valleys and the early infrastructure of local school districts and family burial grounds.
