1973 Map of Delmer

About this map

Lake Cumberland dominates the central landscape of this Pulaski County region, its flooded branches and hollows reaching deep into the dissected terrain of the Cumberland River valley. The map documents the mid-1970s development of the area, featuring the path of the Cumberland Parkway and the sprawling water-frontage at Lees Ford Dock. Significant local heritage sites are preserved here, most notably the Mill Springs National Cem and the adjacent Zollicoffer Park, marking the 1862 Civil War battlefield. On the higher ground east of the reservoir, the city of Somerset expands toward its corporate boundaries near the Oakwood Training Center. Rural life is anchored by small communities like Nancy, Delmer, and Trimble, along with numerous country churches such as Saline Ch and Okalona Ch that served generations of families in the southern Kentucky hills.
