[edit] Oil boom

I would like to see a section on the rise of the Oil Boom of the 1920s in Crawford County. Oblong played a big role in this and caught the attention of the likes of John D. Rockafeller and Standard Oil. Is anyone out there prepared to write this. It might be best placed as a secondary linking article. It would be a good entry in my opinion and shed some light on the area's Golden Age.
