1953 Map of Fallsburg

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Blaine Creek snakes through the heart of this Appalachian landscape, defining the character of eastern Kentucky just after the mid-century. The settlement of Fallsburg sits at a critical bend in the creek, surrounded by a network of rural schools and family chapels like Bradley Gap Ch and Newcomb Chapel. This era reveals a region heavily shaped by its geography and industrial infrastructure, with pipe lines cutting across the ridges and an extensive Oil Field stretching through the southern hills.
