About this map

Prague serves as the primary hub of this central Oklahoma landscape during the late 1960s, reflecting its Czech heritage through landmarks like St Wenceslaus Cem and the Czech National Cem. The town's mid-century infrastructure is well-defined, featuring the Prague Municipal Airport, a High Sch, and a Drive-in Theater west of the main settlement. The surrounding terrain is a mosaic of agricultural fields and active energy production, notably within the West Prague Oil Field and the North Earlsboro Oil Field at the southern margin.

The North Canadian River meanders across the southern half of the sheet, where the settlement of Centerview and the landmark of Keokuk Falls are located. Numerous family and community burial grounds, such as McKosato Cem, Giles Cem, and Lambdin Cem, are scattered across the townships of Dent and Econ Tuchka, offering significant data for those tracing local lineage near the borders of Lincoln, Pottawatomie, and Seminole counties.
