1959 Map of Halstead

Evidence of a deeply rooted rural society is seen in the distribution of country schools and churches, such as South Garden Sch, Fairview Sch, and the Mennonite Ch near the northern boundary. While agriculture dominates the terrain, the appearance of Oil Wells and a Gas Well in the northern sections indicates the diversification of the local economy during this era. The map also records the location of the Halstead Airfield and the local Cemetery, providing essential details for genealogical research and land-use studies.
