USGS Topo · Published 1948About this map
Albany, Kentucky, and Byrdstown, Tennessee, anchor this borderland survey, illustrating the rural landscape before the regional transformation brought by mid-century reservoirs. The map reveals an intricate network of one-room schoolhouses like Snow Sch and Ewing Sch, alongside numerous country churches including Smyrna Ch and New Bethel Ch. This density of civic and religious institutions reflects a late-1920s agrarian society where travel was still dominated by natural river crossings.
