USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
The Little Sandy River meanders through this portion of Carter County, anchoring a landscape defined by sharp ridges and deep hollows like Bourbon Hollow and Schoolhouse Hollow. The seat at Grayson serves as the central hub, home to Kentucky Christian College and situated along the historic Midland Trail. The transport geography of the early 1950s is clearly visible, with the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad following the river valley through industrial and residential points such as Hitehins and Leon.
