About this map

Goose Creek and the Red Bird River dominate the landscape of this 1970s survey, illustrating the complex geography of eastern Kentucky. Small settlements such as Barcreek, Hensley, and Tanksley are positioned along these winding waterways, connected by a network of hollows and gaps like Maupin Gap and Cotton Gap. The map documents a rural economy transitioning through the late 20th century, with numerous Gas Wells appearing near the river and widespread Strip Mines concentrated around Town Mountain and the headwaters of Bear Creek.
