1967 Map of Stillwater South

About this map

Oklahoma State University anchors the northern edge of this mid-century survey, surrounded by the growing residential blocks of Stillwater. South of the campus and its many city parks, the landscape transitions into a production-heavy rural expanse defined by energy extraction and agriculture. The southern half of the map is dominated by the Lost Creek Oil Field and the North Perkins Oil Field, where numerous oil wells and pipelines are marked across the townships of Elm Grove and Clayton. Transportation history is visible along an Old Railroad Grade that follows the winding path of Stillwater Creek. Genealogists will find significant local records in the locations of Fairlawn Cemetery and Elm Grove Cem, alongside several country schools like Pleasant View Sch that served the outlying farming communities before modernization.
