1963 Map of Graham

About this map

The winding Pond River defines the landscape of western Muhlenberg County during the early 1960s, serving as a natural boundary between several neighboring jurisdictions. The era marks a significant transition in local infrastructure, as the Western Kentucky Toll Road and Western Kentucky Parkway cut across the northern reaches, overlaying an older network of country roads. Small rural communities like Graham and McNary anchor the region, while the Illinois Central railroad follows the path of Illinois Creek toward Bakersport. For those researching local family history, several prominent landmarks are recorded, including Yeargins Chapel Cem, Vernal Grove Ch, and Mt Carmel Cem. The presence of numerous Oil Wells and active Strip Mines illustrates the industrial shift toward mineral extraction that characterized this part of the state in the mid-century.
