1954 Map of Linch

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Sussex Oil Field and surrounding petroleum deposits dominate this mid-century landscape in Johnson County, illustrating the intensive post-war industrialization of the Wyoming plains. Managed in part by the United States Atomic Energy Commission, the area is defined by a network of camps and infrastructure supporting the extraction economy. Worker settlements like the Sussex Unit, North Meadow Creek Camp, and Meadow Creek camps sit alongside the Linch post office, while the Sussex Repressuring Plant marks a significant technical hub for the field's operations.
