    1. [OKCARTER] Re: Is there a Hewett in Carter County with an oil field in 1920??
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UYB.2ACE/1449.3 Message Board Post: Just thought I would help a little since I grew up in the area during the 50's. Hewett is located between Wilson and Lone Grove - closer to Wilson. Today the only thing remaining is the Cemetary and various homes scattered throughout the area. The entire area is/was oil country - oil pumps are everywhere- the deeper you go into the woods the thicker the pumps. There were also refineries (2) in this area also. probably about 1900-20 - one in Wilson and the other Hewett. Mr. John Cannon has been the most informative - even for me. Hope I helped Carolyn
