About this map

Taloga Oil and Gas Field and the Dawson Oil Field dominate the landscape of northwestern Oklahoma in the mid-1980s, revealing an era of intensive energy extraction across Dewey County. The terrain is marked by a high density of Gas Wells, Oil Wells, and numerous Drill Holes, reflecting the subsurface industrial wealth of the region. This economic activity is supported by a network of infrastructure including a prominent Pipeline and the north-south corridor of Route 183. At the local level, the map identifies landmarks of rural life such as the Fairview Cemetery and the Dawson benchmark. Waterways like Sarter Creek cut through the undulating plains, while smaller features such as a Gravel Pit and a Radio Tower provide specific points of reference for those tracing historical land use or genealogical ties to the Harrison and Banner Oil Field areas.
