1925 Map of Cub Run

About this map

The winding Nolin River dominates this mid-1920s survey of central Kentucky, its serpentine bends carving through the rural landscape between Millerstown and Dickeys Mills. The map captures a moment when water-powered industry still anchored local commerce, evidenced by Hughes Mill, Ames Mill, and Wheelers Mill positioned along the river and its tributaries. While the Illinois Central railroad touches the northern boundary at Clarkson and Grayson Springs Station, much of the interior relies on a network of schools and churches that served small agrarian communities. Researchers will find numerous family-named locations such as Sanders Store, Cox Store, and Hester School. In the southwest corner, the Green River makes a brief appearance near Whistle Mountain, marking the transition into the terrain of the Mammoth Cave area. The distribution of features like Washington Meredith Ford and Pierce Ford highlights the river's historical role as both a barrier and a thoroughfare for early travelers.
