About this map

The Gladiola Southwest Oil Field and Gladiola South Oil Field dominate this corner of Lea County, revealing a landscape defined by petroleum extraction and ranching infrastructure in the early 1970s. Numerous Oil Wells and a central Pipeline illustrate the industrial footprint on the High Plains, while the survival of the King Cem provides a vital link for genealogists researching early settlers in the region.
