Description

Shaw (1915a) defined this structure and Kay (1915) merely copied Shaw's discussion. The structure was described as a northeast-trending nose, but is difficult to locate on Shaw's structure map. Newer maps show no anticline in the area; for example, Cady et al. (1940) mapped a small basin in this area. The name White Oak Anticline should not be used.
