1950 Map of Fenton

About this map

Kentucky Lake dominates the western edge of this landscape, where the Eggner Ferry Bridge connects the shoreline near the settlement of Fenton. This area, famously known as Between the Rivers, is largely occupied by the Kentucky Woodlands Wildlife Refuge, a designation that preserves the rural character of the mid-20th century. Local life is anchored by community landmarks such as Jenny Ridge Church and Loves Eve Church, while numerous family burial grounds like Matheny Cem and Newton Cem are scattered across the wooded ridges.
