About this map

Trickham and Shields anchor this rural landscape along the Coleman Co Brown Co line during the 1960s. The settlement at Trickham is situated near the confluence of Mukewater Creek and Hog Creek, featuring a local Gaging Sta and multiple Oil Wells. The terrain is defined by its watercourses and small family cemeteries, including Lee Cem and Rice Cem, which provide significant points for genealogical research.

An Old Railroad Grade cuts through the southeastern corner, marking the legacy of earlier transportation routes. Resource extraction and water management are evident through numerous Gravel Pits and several spillways, including Spillway Elev 1430 on the West Fork Clear Creek. The presence of a Flowing Well (Salt) and scattered Drill Holes points to the area's varied geological and industrial exploration history.
