1959 Map of Vera

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The small settlement of Vera serves as the primary focal point of this late-1950s landscape, situated along the line of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The map reveals a transition between the developing Tulsa metropolitan fringe and the more remote reaches of Washington and Tulsa Counties. To the west, the topography is carved by a dense network of drainages including Skalall Creek, Tyner Creek, and Horsepen Creek, while the southwestern quadrant shows the early footprint of the regional petroleum industry with clusters of Oil Wells and a Gas Well near Bird Creek.
