About this map

The confluence of the Arkansas River and Illinois River creates a dynamic landscape just south of Webbers Falls. This territory, where the borders of Muskogee, Sequoyah, and Haskell counties meet, is dominated by the sprawling waters of the Robert S-Kerr Reservoir. The terrain is characterized by broad alluvial flats such as Hisaw Bottom and Upper Sandtown Bottom, balanced by prominent elevations like Round Mountain and Harris Mtn.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of small family and community burial grounds dotting the riverbanks and hillsides. Notable locations include the Hanks Family Cem, Fields Cem, and the Wilkerson Cem near the river’s edge. The small settlement of Tamaha sits on the southern bank, while the Sandtown Woods Nature Trl provides a modern recreational corridor near Sandtown Cem. The intricate network of rural roads like E Tamaha RD and e1050 RD connects these historic points across the varied riverine topography.
