About this map

The Arkansas River carves a sweeping path through the borderlands of Osage Co and Pawnee Co, anchoring a landscape defined by its rural intersections and watercourses. Small settlements like Skedee and Jobes serve as focal points for a network of county roads that traverse the varying elevations above the river valley. The agricultural roots of the region are evident in features such as Grain Elevator Rd, which connects the prairie lands to former rail corridors.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial sites, including Riverside Cem near the river bluffs, as well as Mount Pleasant Cem, Endicott Cem, and Wheeler Cem. Drainage is managed by a complex web of tributaries like Black Bear Creek, Gray Horse Creek, and Crystal Cr, while PSO Lake stands as a notable water feature tucked near the river's southern bend, reflecting the industrial and utility development of the modern era.
