About this map

Eufaula Lake dominates the landscape of McIntosh County in this modern survey, where the sprawling fingers of the reservoir meet the historic drainage of the North Canadian River and the Deep Fork. The geography here is defined by these broad water bodies, which have reshaped the traditional creek valleys of Snake Creek and Fame Br. Small settlements such as Pierce and Richardsville sit on the higher ground overlooking the lake's northern reaches, connected by a network of rural roads like n4110 RD and E 1090 RD.

For those researching local family history, several burial grounds are preserved across the quadrangle, including the Pierce Cem and Brush Hill Cem near the community of Brush Hill. The presence of the McNik Cem and Big Arbor Cem provides specific points of interest for genealogists tracing ancestors in the Muscogee (Creek) Nation territory, where these rural landmarks remain essential ties to the area's pre-reservoir past.
