1954 Map of Coopersville

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Coopersville and its surrounding ridge-and-hollow terrain are documented here during a period of active land use within the Cumberland National Forest. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Little South Fork Cumberland River and its numerous tributaries, including Sinking Creek and Keeton Creek. This 1954 field-checked survey highlights a deeply ingrained rural network of family-named landmarks and essential community institutions. Evidence of the regional economy is visible through the scattered Oil Wells and smaller Oil Well operations located in Broiles Hollow and near Pine Knobs. Numerous small schools like Upper Turkey Creek Sch and Dry Fork Sch are paired with country churches such as Mt Hermon Ch and Big Sinking Ch, providing a detailed look at the social geography of Wayne and McCreary counties before the modernization of rural road networks.
