Description | This is an oral history interview with Morris Pyle conducted as part of the Houston History Project. Morris Pyle was born in east Texas in 1927. At the age of 24 his uncle got him a job on a seismic crew in southern Louisiana swamps and he moved to Lafayette; he worked for that company for about a year and a half. After that he went to work for another company, where he continued to generate maps from seismic data. He describes his early days on the seismic crews in the swamps, particularly noting what they were doing to generate maps and the importance of the local workers for moving about in the swamps. |
