About this map

St Martins Church Cem and School serves as a central landmark for the settlement of Flaherty, anchoring a landscape defined by small rural hubs and agricultural valleys just after the Second World War. The terrain is marked by significant karst topography, with numerous sinkholes and depressions visible throughout the drainage basins of Otter Creek and Brushy Fork. This 1948 military-to-civilian reprint reveals a network of community institutions, including Salem School and Miller School, alongside family-named locales like Neilton Corner. A portion of the northeast quadrant is dedicated to a Military Reservation, reflecting the region's mid-century tactical importance. The road system, featuring the Elizabethtown Road and Brandenburg Road, connects these upland farming communities to larger regional centers while following the natural contours of Big Spring Valley and Howell Valley.
