1967 Map of Carrollton

About this map

Ohio River and Kentucky River meet at the heart of this landscape, defining the development of Carrollton and Prestonville in the late 1960s. The town grid of Carrollton is densely detailed, featuring the Courthouse, City Hall, and several religious and educational landmarks such as St Johns Sch and Calvary Ch. To the east, the expansive General Butler State Park provides a recreation hub with its Campsite and Picnic Area, while the National Guard Armory sits nearby. Across the water in Indiana, the terrain of Spenter Milton and Racket Ridge is punctuated by small settlements like Brooksburg and Lamb. This survey captures the region just as modern infrastructure like Pipelines began to traverse the deep hollows and ridges of the Kentucky-Indiana border, contrasting with older sites like the Old Bethel Cem and McKay Cem.
