About this map

The town of Vian serves as a northern hub in this landscape where the hills of eastern Oklahoma meet the broad reaches of the Robert S Kerr Reservoir. To the south, the settlement of Tamaha sits near the riverbanks, surrounded by the fertile alluvial plains of Sandtown Bottom, Saylor Bottom, and Mulehead Bottom. This map illustrates the intersection of upland terrain features like Potato Knob and Wolf Mtn with the expansive water systems of Vian Creek and Little Vian Cr.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several rural burial grounds, including Vian Cem, Tamaha Cem, and Drake Stand Cem. The map detail extends to small community clusters such as McKey and Carlisle, and includes transportation landmarks like Neversweat Too Airport. The boundary between Sequoyah and Haskell counties follows the meandering path of the reservoir, marking a significant geographic transition in the region.
