About this map

Creekville and the winding Red Bird River corridor anchor this late-1970s look at the rugged borderlands between Clay and Leslie counties. The landscape is defined by deep hollows and narrow branches, where small communities like Roark and Queendale are linked by the Red Bird and the mountain roads of KY 66 and KY 406. Cultural life is evident in the numerous country churches and local schools, such as the Flat Creek Mission Ch and Flat Creek Sch, alongside family landmarks like the Arnetts Cem. The region's economy at this time is clearly marked by resource extraction, with numerous strip mines, oil wells, and gas wells scattered across high ridges like Rocky Mtn and Caney Knob.
