About this map

The Artesian Oil Field and Lloyd Creek Oil Field define the economic landscape of this portion of Calhoun County during the early 1980s. This survey, based on 1970s aerial photography, reveals a region where resource extraction and rural community life existed side-by-side. Small settlements like Artesian are anchored by spiritual and social centers such as Happy Home Ch, Trinity Chapel, and Antioch Ch. The terrain is heavily dissected by watercourses, including Little Champagnolle Creek and Hurricane Creek, which wind through a landscape dotted with numerous Gravel Pits. Local genealogy and history are preserved at sites like Friendship Cem and Faustina Ch Cem, while the Artesian Lookout Tower stands as a prominent landmark for forestry and fire management.
