1925 Map of Cub Run

About this map

The Nolin River winds through a dense network of early 20th-century settlements and mills, defining the landscape where Grayson, Hardin, Hart, and Edmonson counties meet. This area, surveyed in the mid-1920s, shows the transition from a river-and-rail economy toward a more modern road network. The Illinois Central railroad serves the northern corridor at Clarkson and Grayson Springs Sta, while the river south of Millerstown remains the lifeblood for local industry, evidenced by landmarks like Wheeler Mill and Dickeys Mills.
