About this map

Peoria anchors this northeastern Oklahoma landscape where the agricultural grid meets the winding course of the Spring River. This 2012 survey documents a rural environment shaped by numerous watercourses, including Fivemile Cr and Warren Br, which feed toward the northern reaches of Grand Lake O' the Cherokees. The map highlights several localized settlements like Five Mile and Oak Grove, along with small cemeteries such as Newman Cem and Peoria Cem that serve as vital touchstones for family historians researching the borderlands of Oklahoma and Kansas.

Transportation routes are defined by a strict section-line road network, including Stateline Rd, which separates the two states at the northern edge. Notable landmarks include the Devils Promenade Bridge near the river and the curiously named Devils Hollow. These features, combined with the presence of Little Fivemile Cr and Flint Br, reveal a terrain deeply influenced by its drainage patterns and the historic rural communities that have persisted along the state line.
