About this map

Oil wells and active oil fields are scattered across the rural landscape of southwestern Indiana in this late-twentieth-century study. The area is defined by the intersection of small crossroads settlements and township lines, including Armstrong, Robinson, and German. Community life centers around established landmarks like the Armstrong Recreation Center and the St Peters Ch, while the agricultural character of the region is punctuated by numerous family and church burial grounds such as Kunz Cem and Engleheim Cem.

Big Creek and its tributaries, including Clear Creek and Rahen Branch, carve through the terrain, providing a natural drainage system for the surrounding farms. The map documents a transition in infrastructure, showing the development of residential areas like the Trailer Park alongside traditional rural school sites like No 3 School and No 6 School. This document provides a detailed look at the persistent settlement patterns and resource extraction activities in the area.
