1962 Map of Dingus

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Paint Creek and its myriad tributaries carve through the heart of Morgan County, shaping the clustered settlements of the early 1960s. The landscape is defined by its hollows and ridges, where small communities like Dingus and Crockett are linked by winding roads and several significant pipelines. Evidence of local industry is visible in the form of a Strip Mine and an Oil Well near Old House Branch. Genealogy researchers will find a wealth of data points, including numerous family-named burial sites such as Conley Cem and Ison Cem. Educational and spiritual life centers on landmarks like the White Oak Sch, New Salem Ch Ison Cem, and Sulphur Spring Ch. The map also captures the intricate water network of the Open Fork and Middle Fork, which dictated the early placement of homes and farmsteads in this corner of Eastern Kentucky.
