About this map

The Canadian River and Little River carve through this landscape at the intersection of Seminole and Pontotoc Counties, where the St Louis San Francisco railroad anchors the settlement of Sasakwa. The map records a complex cultural geography, notably tracing the Approximate Old Indian Boundary that once divided tribal territories.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of family and community markers, including numerous small burial sites like Old Mission Cem, Harjo Cem, and Tiger Cem. Education and faith are central to the rural infrastructure, evidenced by Gully Sch and Bird Creek Ch. The presence of several Oil Field notations and scattered Quarries indicates the industrial activity that sustained these communities in the late 1950s.
