1971 Map of Sycamore
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Sycamore serves as a small anchor point in this corner of Northeast Oklahoma, where the landscape transitions from the wooded drainage of Yellow Bird Hollow to the open expanses of Wet Prairie. In the early 1970s, the rural character of Delaware County is evident in the network of country churches that dot the hills and valleys, including Poynor Ch, Oak Chapel, and Mt Herman Ch. These landmarks, along with Indianola Cem and Ward Cem, highlight the established community roots that have persisted as the land was settled around major waterways like Whitewater Creek and Beaty Creek. The presence of a Substa near the town center indicates the creeping modernization of the electrical grid into this agricultural and wooded terrain during the late twentieth century.
