Ohio River frontage and the sprawling wetlands of Big Cypress Swamp define this 1920 survey of western Kentucky. The landscape is heavily dotted with rural institutions, showing a dense network of one-room schoolhouses like Duley Bluff School, Valley Forge School, and Threlkeld School that served the dispersed farming population. Religious life is equally well-represented through landmarks such as Love Chapel and Mt Pisgah Church.
