1962 Map of Griffithsville

About this map

Griffithsville anchors this mid-century look at the hills and hollows of the Lincoln and Boone county lines, where the landscape is defined by the dense distribution of the oil and gas industry. An intricate network of pipelines and service roads connects numerous gas and oil wells throughout the hills, including areas around Yawkey and Sumerco. This resource extraction economy sits alongside established rural communities, marked by small schools like Duval High Sch and Bulger Sch.
