1953 Map of Fallsburg

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Big Sandy River forms a winding border between Kentucky and West Virginia in this mid-century survey, defining the industrial and social character of the region. The landscape is marked by a significant concentration of extractive industry, specifically numerous Oil fields that pepper the valleys and ridges between Fallsburg and Yatesville. These resources are supported by the strategic presence of the Norfolk and Western and Chesapeake and Ohio railroads, which track the riverbanks to move goods through the Appalachian foothills.
