About this map

The Southern railroad corridor and the winding course of Floyds Fork anchor this look at Jefferson County in the early 1980s. The settlement of Fisherville sits at a geographic crossroads where Old Taylorsville Road meets the river, surrounded by a complex network of smaller communities including Eastwood, Conner, and Lincoln Ridge. This map captures the region during a period of transition, noting the established Job Corps Center and the public space at Floyds Fork Park.

The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, with numerous tributaries like Shakes Run, Brush Run, and Cane Run carving through the terrain. To the south and east, the map traces the intersection of three county lines, showing the borders of Jefferson, Shelby, and Spencer counties near Wilsonville. Small hamlets like Routt and Clark are documented alongside rural infrastructure such as a Pipeline and multiple Cemeteries, providing a clear record of local land use before the expansion of the Louisville suburban fringe.
