2016 Map of Perkins

About this map

The Cimarron River winds through this central Oklahoma landscape, defining the transition between the rolling uplands and the river valley. The city of Perkins serves as the primary hub, with its established street grid featuring names like W Stumbo Ave and Knipe St. Just to the south across the water, the smaller community of Vinco sits near the crossing of S Jardot Rd. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial sites, including the Knipe Cem, Olivet Cem, Brandon Cem, and the Iowa Chapel Cem located near Thompson Rd. The terrain is deeply dissected by numerous watercourses, such as Wild Horse Cr, Corduroy Cr, and Dugout Cr, which shape the rural road network and section lines as they converge toward the river basin.
