About this map

Cadiz serves as the focal point of this Trigg County landscape, where the Cadiz RR terminates near the banks of the Little River. The topography is defined by the expansive Lake Barkley in the northwest, a massive hydrographic feature that reshaped the local drainage of Caney Creek and its tributaries. This 1960s-era documentation, with updates into the early 1980s, captures the town's infrastructure, including a Filtration Plant and Sewage Disposal facility near the river bend.

Rural life is mapped through a network of country churches and small crossroads such as Liberty Point and Donaldson. Notable landmarks for genealogists and local historians include the McUpton Sch and numerous cemeteries scattered along the ridges of Sinking Fork and Graysby Creek. The presence of multiple Landing Strips and a Boat Ramp suggests a mid-century shift toward recreational and regional aviation accessibility.
