About this map

The North Canadian River meanders heavily through this Oklahoma landscape, defining the geography of the region around Weleetka and Hughes County. In this 2010 survey, the area reflects a long-standing reliance on energy production, with numerous named zones such as the West Weleetka Oil Field, Southwest Alabama Oil Field, and the East Wetumka Oil and Gas Field dotting the terrain. The town of Weleetka is concentrated in the northeast, featuring a structured street grid near the Weleetka Oil Field and the local Crestwood Cemetery.

Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the Weleetka Dam on Weleetka Lake and the Lake Wetumka Dam creating Lake Wetumka to the southwest. For those tracing family histories or early land use, the map identifies several rural burial grounds, including the North Fork Cemetery near Alabama Creek and the Salt Creek Cemetery, which serve as permanent markers of the community's established history amidst the active oil and gas extraction sites.
