The wetland area on the subject property is no longer apparent,but a large wetland area can be seen to the northwest of the property. A gas well can be seen on the adjacent property to the west. L In the 1963 photo, the field road crossing the subject property appears more defined than in the previous photo. An object which may be a gas well is located near the center of the northeast property line. New gas wells can be seen to the east and west of the property.
