1950 Map of Brushart

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Beauty Ridge and Zion Ridge dominate the landscape of this corner of eastern Kentucky, where the boundary between Lewis and Greenup counties follows the winding high ground. The 1950 topography reveals a deeply dissected terrain of narrow hollows and creek beds that dictated the placement of small rural communities like Whiteoak, York, and Brushart. This era in the Appalachian foothills was defined by a dense network of country schools and family burial grounds, providing a vital resource for genealogists.
