1963 Map of Red Bird

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Missouri-Kansas-Texas railroad cuts a diagonal path through the landscape, anchoring the settlement of Red Bird and the neighboring community of Gatesville. This early 1960s survey documents a region defined by its proximity to the meandering Verdigris River, which carves dramatic features like Horseshoe Bend through the terrain. The map is a vital resource for genealogical research, identifying numerous family and community burial grounds including Hawkins Cem, Beck Cem, and Lincoln Cem. Beyond the river and rail corridors, the land is heavily marked by the region's extraction history, with a high density of Oil Wells peppered across Coal Creek and a visible Strip Mine in the southern portion of the quadrangle. These industrial markings reveal the economic drivers of the Wagoner County countryside during this era of Oklahoma's history.
