1967 Map of Parker

About this map

Muddy Boggy Creek and Caney Boggy Creek dominate this landscape in southern Oklahoma, where the floodplains of the Boggy river system meet the hilly terrain of Jackson and Haskell townships. The settlement of Parker serves as a local anchor in the north, while the presence of Pine Sch and Pine Cem suggests a once-active rural school district and community hub. This mid-century survey captures the region's transition into a more modern pastoral economy, evidenced by the established road network connecting scattered farmsteads and family landmarks. Genealogists may find value in the remote McCarty Cem, tucked away in the southern half of the quadrangle. The hydrology of the area is particularly detailed, tracing the winding paths of Sweetwater Creek, Rock Creek, and Salt Creek as they feed into the larger river basin.
