1958 Map of Derby

About this map

The Ohio River defines the southeastern border of this mid-century landscape, where the steep bluffs of the Hoosier National Forest meet the river valley at the Indiana-Kentucky line. Small upland settlements like Leopold and Mount Pleasant are characterized by a network of ridges and deep hollows, such as French Ridge and Sugar Camp Hollow. This area, surveyed in the late 1950s, reveals a rural economy tied to the land, evidenced by the Quarry near Derby and scattered family-named cemeteries like Talley Cem and Harding Cem.
