About this map

The North Fork Canadian River winds in tight oxbows through the heart of the Pottawatomie Co and Lincoln Co borderlands just years after Oklahoma's statehood. The city of Shawnee appears as a burgeoning rail hub, its grid dense with activity where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific RR intersects with the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Missouri Kansas and Texas RR. Further south, Tecumseh remains a significant settlement, connected by the Shawnee Branch and the Rock Island and Interurban RR. Beyond the urban centers, the landscape is defined by the legacy of tribal lands, including an Indian Village and the Shawnee Mission. Local schools like Hagar School and Valley View School are scattered throughout the sections, alongside river crossings such as Mc Kenzie Ford and the Rock Crossing near Econtuchka.
