One of the sections of land in west Edmond (one square mile) was the old West Edmond Oil field during the 40s it was a top producer of petroleum.

Much of the petroleum used to win WW2 came from that square mile. It had oil wells every 10 acres in spots. To this day there are some wells still producing. Most of the oil wells were shut down long ago. Back in the day when oil companies worked real hard to lose all records of ownership. They would dig down 10 feet, throw down a gunny sack and few yards of concrete, and cover it with dirt, and stand back and say "it was a good well, and it is capped now".
Of course that is nothing close the proper way to cap a well. Now days the vast majority of the section has very high dollar homes built on top of old wells. Of course the developer and builder did minimal work to get the pad ready. We had one lady come in to our old business and order prints from 1951 of her area of land. He kitchen blew up when she hit the garbage disposal. Her house was right on top of an old well. Big lawsuit and we never did hear the outcome.
The train tracks nearby are still in use today. Back during the war I heard form my old boss that the tanks of oil were pumped into trains, and they did not worry a bit about spillage. The oil was needed to win the war, so the ground was slick with oil. Now a bank sits on top of that area. The tracks are still there and in use.
