About this map

The boundary between Okfuskee County and Okmulgee County divides this Oklahoma landscape, where the city of Henryetta serves as a regional hub for transportation and aviation. The industrial legacy of the region is evident in landmarks like the Creek Mine Reservoir and the Creek Mine Cemetery, alongside the modern operations of the Henryetta Municipal Airport. To the west, the settlement of Weleetka sits near the crossing of Old US Highway 62, reflecting a historical corridor of travel through the plains.

Rural life is anchored by a network of small communities and family burial grounds, including Bryant and Pharoah. The terrain is characterized by numerous small reservoirs and drainage systems like Coal Creek and Montezuma Creek. Genealogists will find particular value in the scattered cemeteries such as Arbeka Cemetery, Likowski Cemetery, and Renkie Cemetery, which preserve the names of early residents across the section lines of the Public Land Survey System.
