1958 Map of Derby

About this map

The Ohio River carves a sharp border between Indiana and Kentucky on this mid-century survey, defining the industrial and social character of the region. On the Indiana side, the Hoosier National Forest dominates the landscape, where ridges like Mogan Ridge and Kuntz Ridge are separated by deep hollows. The settlement of Leopold sits near the northern boundary, anchored by St Augustinus Ch, while the town of Derby rests directly along the riverbank near a large Quarry. Family history is deeply etched into the land through numerous burial sites, including the Upper Cummings Cem, Lower Cummings Cem, and Badger Cem. Across the water in Kentucky, the small community of Chenaultt and its associated Chenaultt Sch illustrate the rural riverfront life of the 1950s before significant modern development.
