2012 Map of Red Oak

About this map

Red Oak serves as the central hub of this eastern Oklahoma landscape, positioned north of the winding Fourche Maline. The topography is defined by significant elevations including Red Oak Mtn, Red Oak Peak, and Bull Hill, which overlook a network of creek drainages such as Brazil Cr and Red Oak Cr. For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for several burial grounds, including Red Oak Cem, Rock Creek Cem, and Salonia Cem. The southern portion of the quadrangle transitions from the higher ridges down to the broad Long Prairie, while the small settlement of Denman sits further east. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the rural road network and the natural watercourses that have historically shaped settlement patterns in Latimer County.
