About this map

Red Mound rises as a prominent landmark in this mid-1960s landscape, positioned north of the county line separating Lincoln and Seminole counties. The area reflects a rural economy defined by petroleum extraction and local community centers, with the East Sylvian Oil Field and North Bethel Oil Field dominating the eastern sections. Networks of pipelines crisscross the terrain, weaving between numerous gravel pits and quarries that dot the countryside.

Genealogists and local historians can find a high density of rural institutions, including the Strother Sch and Hitchita Sch. Spiritual life is anchored by several country churches such as Snake Creek Ch, Tallahasee Ch, and Pleasant Ridge Ch. The settlement at Sylvian and the waters of Snake Creek and Econtuchka Creek provide further orientation for those tracing family roots or land ownership in this portion of Oklahoma.
