1950 Map of Allensville

About this map

The Louisville and Nashville railroad tracks cut a diagonal path through this borderland, anchoring the primary settlement at Allensville. Situated in the fertile agricultural region where the Todd and Logan county lines meet the Tennessee border, the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Red River and its tributaries, including Elk Fork and Spring Creek. Small hamlets like Keysburg and Darnell provide a look at the rural post-war economy of the early 1950s, characterized by scattered family farmsteads and isolated landmarks such as Belmont Cem. The terrain reveals a complex network of drainage and local ponds, most notably Mosley Pond, which reflects the natural sinkhole topography of this limestone-heavy corridor.
