1951 Map of Cranston

About this map

Cumberland National Forest defines the landscape of Rowan County, Kentucky, in the early 1950s, where small settlements are tucked into the valleys of the North Fork Triplett Creek. The community of Cranston sits at a crossroads near the southern edge of the sheet, while other hamlets like Smile, Waltz, and Whisman serve as local anchors. The map reveals a high density of rural institutions essential to mid-century Appalachian life, including Island Fork Sch and the Adams-Davis Sch.
