Description

A slight southeastward structural nosing of the Herrin Coal Member (Pennsylvanian) on the maps of Easton (1942) and Ball (1952) was designated as the Anderson Anticline. No closure was indicated. Nelson's (1987b) map, based on many more control points than were available to Easton or Ball, does not indicate closure or nosing. Use of the name Anderson Anticline should be discontinued.
