About this map

Lancaster and Friendsville anchor this 1968 landscape where the agricultural prairies of southern Illinois meet an active mid-century oil industry. Numerous Oil Wells are scattered across the terrain, particularly concentrated in the southern fields near Friendsville. The rural social fabric of the era is clearly visible through a network of family-named cemeteries and community landmarks, including Corrie Cem, Storckman Cem, and Bethel Ch.
