About this map

The town of Wynona and its surrounding prairie landscape are defined by the extensive footprint of energy extraction and cattle ranching in Osage County. Numerous petroleum deposits characterize the local geography, including the New England Oil Field, Bulldog Oil Field, and the Pershing Oil Field near the settlement of Pershing. The terrain is marked by prominent rises like Wooster Mound and drained by a web of creeks, notably Twomile Creek and Birch Creek, which carve through the grid-patterned county roads.

Local history is anchored by Saint Josephs Cemetery and the established town site of Wynona, with its central Main St. The map illustrates a region where the industrial legacy of the early 20th-century oil boom persists alongside long-standing agricultural boundaries. Genealogists and researchers can trace the connectivity between remote oil leases and these central settlements, which once served as vital hubs for the workers and families of the Oklahoma oil patch.
