1919 Map of Harlan
USGS Topo · Published 1919About this map
Harlan serves as the focal point of this 1916 survey, situated at the confluence where the Cumberland River meets its Clover Fork and Martins Fork. The era's industrial footprint is clearly marked by the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which snakes through the narrow valleys to serve coal-adjacent settlements like Coxton, Kitts, and White Star. This map documents the complex topography of the Cumberland Plateau before modern development, showing the intricate system of ridges like Pine Mountain and Little Black Mountain that dictated the region's settlement patterns.
