1983 Map of Swiftown

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Swiftown stands at the heart of a complex network of oxbow lakes and winding waterways in this low-lying Delta landscape. The area is defined by the remnants of former river paths, including Sixmile Lake, Fourmile Lake, and Bee Lake, which wrap around Mossy Island. A distinctive historical marker, the Indian Treaty Boundary, cuts diagonally across the lower half of the quadrangle, tracing a legacy of land division north of Wasp Lake. The map reveals a community structured around rural spiritual and memorial sites, such as Bethlehem Ch and Hickory Ridge Cem. Economic activity in the early 1980s is reflected in the specialized use of the wetlands, notably at the Fish Hatchery and within the Greentree State Waterfowl Production Area south of Beckham Swamp.
