About this map

The Cumberland River carves a deep, sinuous path through this segment of the Cumberland National Forest in the early 1950s. The landscape is defined by dramatic river bends like Barnett Bend, Stringer Bend, and Jasper Bend, which separate a series of high, family-named ridges including Hyden and Stocking Ridge. While much of the terrain is dominated by the newly formed Lake Cumberland, small upland settlements and post offices provide evidence of local history. Hail P O and Greenwood serve as primary points of interest, while the Southern railroad line runs along the western edge near U S 27. Genealogists may find value in locating Salem Ch, Bethel Ch, and the North Mill Creek Sch, which anchored these rural communities before significant changes in local geography.
