About this map

Pawhuska serves as the focal point of this 2018 survey, centered at the confluence where Bird Creek meets tributaries like Mud Cr and Clear Creek. The town's grid is well-defined, stretching toward Wakon Iron Blvd and Bartlesville Rd, reflecting its status as a regional hub. Local history is anchored by the Pawhuska City Cem and the smaller Strikeaxe Cem and Lookout Cem located in the surrounding hills, which offer valuable points for genealogical research.

The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including Middle Bird Cr, Rush Cr, and Sand Creek, which carve through the landscape toward the southeast settlement of Nelagoney. This drainage pattern has historically influenced the placement of county roads such as Old Hwy 99 and Co RD 4201, which follow the contours of the valleys and ridges. The map provides a detailed view of the infrastructure and land divisions within the T26N and T25N townships.
