1960 Map of Doyle

About this map

Great Falls Lake serves as a central hydraulic hub in this mid-century topographic record, where the Caney Fork and Collins River converge at the Great Falls Dam. The landscape is a complex network of plateaus and hollows, most notably Gum Spring Mountain and Bone Cave Mountain, the latter named for the significant Bone Cave feature. The industrial and transit foundations of the region are anchored by the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which links the settlements of Doyle, Quebeck, and Walling. Historic thoroughfares like the Old Kentucky Road and Francis Ferry Road highlight the area's legacy as a regional crossroads. Numerous rural landmarks, including the Quebeck Sch and cemeteries like Old Jericho Cem and Grissom Cem, provide essential data points for genealogical research and local history studies.
