1958 Map of Vamoosa

About this map

Konawa Field and the surrounding petroleum landscape dominate this section of the Seminole Co and Pontotoc Co border during the late 1950s. The map illustrates a dense network of extraction infrastructure interspersed with rural institutions, notably the numerous family and community burial grounds such as Nash-Wood Cem, Wise Cem, and Moppin Cem. These sites, along with rural religious centers like Seminole Arkeba Ch and High Spring Ch, provide a detailed record of the mid-century social geography in this oil-producing region.
