About this map

The Oklahoma oil landscape of the late 1950s is deeply etched into this survey of Pottawatomie County. Numerous oil wells and a Pumping Station punctuate the terrain between the small settlements of Romulus, Anderson, and Pearson. The survey illustrates a community organized around rural landmarks, featuring both the Anderson Sch and Cloverdale Sch, alongside spiritual and memorial sites like Oakgrove Ch, Romulus Cem, and Avoca Cem. The physical geography is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Salt Creek, Opossum Creek, and Delaware Creek, which carve through the townships. This document is particularly valuable for its depiction of the mid-century petroleum industry integrated with established farming communities, showing the proximity of industrial infrastructure to schools and family homes in Avoca and the surrounding townships.
