1954 Map of Derby

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Ohio River serves as the dominant geographical and political boundary in this mid-century survey, separating Indiana from Kentucky. Along the river's eastern bank in Breckinridge County, the small settlement of Chenaultt represents a quiet pocket of rural life. The presence of the Chenaultt Sch suggests a localized community center that served the surrounding farmsteads during this era. Most of the terrain shown is concentrated along the river's edge, with the water level maintained at Normal Pool Elev 367. This specific segment of the river valley highlights the historical transition between Perry County, Indiana, and its southern neighbor, providing a clear record of the shoreline and elevation before significant modern development altered the landscape.
