1964 Map of Stigler NE

About this map

The Arkansas River and Canadian River converge here, creating a complex landscape of fertile lowlands and shifting river boundaries. In the early 1960s, these alluvial plains are identified as Campbell Bottom, Sadie Bottom, and Sandtown Bottom, areas historically vital for agriculture and river-based transport. The Missouri Pacific railroad cuts through the northern section near Upson Siding, while the surrounding hills are marked by a high density of family and community burial sites, including the Fields Cem, Jones Cem, and Hefley Cem. Educational and spiritual life centers on landmarks like the Stony Point Sch, McIntosh Chapel, and Rock Hill Ch. The mapping of an Indefinite Boundary along the river channels reflects the dynamic nature of this water-dominated geography at the intersection of Sequoyah, Muskogee, and Haskell counties.
