About this map

Tribbey and its surrounding countryside in Pottawatomie County are defined by a complex network of water management and rural landmarks at the turn of the 21st century. The landscape is characterized by the numerous dams and reservoirs of the Salt Creek watershed, including the Salt Creek Site 10 Reservoir and Salt Creek Site 20 Reservoir, which underscore the region's managed agricultural and hydrological character. These man-made features sit alongside natural drainages like Coon Creek and Cottonwood Creek.

For those researching family history, the map provides precise locations for Tribbey Cemetery, Friendship Cemetery, and the Old Moral Cemetery, which are scattered among the section-line roads like Slaughterville Rd and Mattie Rd. The transition from larger creeks like Salt Creek to the smaller, numbered reservoirs highlights the systematic approach to flood control and water storage that has shaped this part of Oklahoma.
