Teresa, that is an interesting picture. Reminds me of some of the pictures I have seen of the Kilgore, Texas early day fields. This is a side note, but since I have had relatives that have worked in the Augusta and ElDorado refineries, and I have worked in the oil industry for many years, I am always glad to see old pictures of the industry. I worked at Reda Pump for several years, both in Bartlesville, OK and Midland, TX - I thought I would mention that the first Reda Pump was installed in a well in nearby Burns, KS. Phillips was also contributor in that first venture. Mr. Arutunoff was quite a gentleman, I had the priviledge of knowing him very casually, as he was still involved with the company at the time I was in the Bartlesville facility. Incidently, REDA stood for Russian Electrical Dynamo Arutunoff. He was the inventor of the downhole submergible pump and was a Russian immigrant. Schlumberger now owns the company.

Marcia, too bad Floyd (Lewis' father) isn't still living - he worked in these oil fields and could probably tell you exactly where these were at.
