1978 Map of Bedford East
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The East Fork White River carves a winding path through this Lawrence County landscape, defining the industrial and agricultural geography of the late 1970s. The city of Bedford serves as a significant hub in the northwest, where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific Railroad and the Louisville and Nashville Railroad intersect near the courthouse and City Hall. Beyond the urban core, the map reveals a deeply etched topography drained by Leatherwood Creek and Guthrie Creek, leading to smaller rural settlements like Buddha, Rabbitville, and Rivervale. Notable local landmarks include the Virgil I Grissom Municipal Airport and several historic burial grounds such as Madden Cem and Ikerd Cem. Extensive quarry operations south of Englewood point to the region's long-standing stone industry, which shaped the development of nearby Woodville and Lawrenceport.
