1967 Map of Fenton

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee River dominate this 1967 survey of the area now designated as Land Between the Lakes. This moment in time captures the region following the creation of major reservoirs, showing the Egger Ferry Bridge crossing the wide waters near Fenton. The map documents the Tennessee Valley Divide, which separates the drainages flowing toward Kentucky Lake from those heading into Energy Lake and Barkley Lake to the east. Interior landmarks like the Lookout Tower and Roadside Park near Golden Pond provide specific points of reference for local historians. Genealogists will find several burial sites including Jenny Ridge Cem, Matthew Cem, and Pleasant Valley Cem. The landscape is a network of hollows and bays, such as Vickers Bay and Shaw Bay, illustrating how the rising waters reshaped the old creek valleys of Trigg and Marshall counties.
