These images were processed from the original DoT files, preserving full detail by presenting only one 36-section Township on each screen. You do need to know the name of the county. Then, if you know the Section/Township number click on "Matrix" to access its complete set of maps. Or, if you do not know the Township and Range numbers, just click on the "Map" link, then click on any town on that map to see the corresponding detailed township map. | ||||

These detailed county maps were originally scanned by Mike Taylor and presented on OKGenWeb with permission of the Oklahoma Highway Department. For details, see his Oklahoma Towns page. They may be freely distributed or printed and included in publications as reference material, but must not be resold. These files are still available for downloading, but some are extremely large so the goal of this latest project has been to provide versions that can be viewed online.
The version presented here breaks each of those county maps into a set of detailed maps that show roads, creeks, cemeteries - even churches, schools, and rural dwellings. Usually, one page covers one numbered township consisting of 36 sections (a square, six miles on each side), but in some cases irregular county lines have resulted in more or less than 36 sections per page.
If you don't already know which county to look in, but have a place name, you can use my cross-reference lists to identify the county. | |
In most cases, this provides the Township & Range as well as the name of the county the town is/was in. | |
When there have been several towns bearing the same name, the dates each P.O. was active can help narrow your search. These lists also include some long-gone rural communities that aren't on the Towns Index. | |
If you don't know the county or the Township-Range number but do know the Township Name, this will help you find the Counties that have Townships by that name. Sometimes a Township Name is unique and your search will be ended. Sometimes a Township Name has been used more than once, but at least this eliminates some of the 77 counties. | |
If you have nothing but a land description, the page that links to numbered Townships with each Region will help you find not just which county that land is in but also its exact location within the county. |
