1965 Map of Crab Orchard

About this map

Crab Orchard and New Dennison anchor this detailed study of Williamson County, reflecting an era where rural industry and traditional community life overlapped. The landscape is defined by the extensive operations of the Delta Mine and Barbara Kay Mine, alongside numerous unspecified Strip Mine sites that reveal the significant impact of the coal industry on the local terrain. These industrial features contrast with a dense network of family and community landmarks, including the Davis Prairie Ch and several small burial grounds such as the Old Krieger Cem and Worley Cem.
