1. Old Cattle Trail Marker
Following the Civil War, huge herds of cattle were driven to northern markets. The Sampson Chisholm Trail starting near Royse City, Texas, crossed the Arkansas River at 145th Street, passed Elam and crossed the Rudolf Karner Farm at this point, then went east of the Broken Arrow Mounds, through Catoosa, to St. Joseph, MO.
