About this map

The Arkansas River carves a broad valley through this portion of Wagoner County, defining the agricultural character of the Choska Bottom and the surrounding plains. To the north, the town of Porter serves as a local center, while the community of Taft is situated south of the river along Taft Rd. The landscape is a patchwork of rural section-line roads such as Spring Hill Rd and N4210 Rd, connecting family farmsteads with local landmarks like Fern Mountain.

Genealogists will find several notable burial sites recorded here, including Choska Cemetery, Van Cemetery, Clarksville Cemetery, and Blackjack Cemetery. The hydrologic network is dominated by the river and its tributaries, including Blue Creek and Cloud Creek, alongside several engineered reservoirs like the Oknoname 101008 Reservoir. This survey provides a clear view of the area's rural development and land use in the early twenty-first century.
