1951 Map of Hillham
USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
The Lost River dominates the northern half of this landscape, its winding course characterized by the Narrows before the waterway meanders through the townships of Halbert and Northwest. Settlement is concentrated in small pockets like Natchez and Hillham, while the southern reaches near French Lick reveal a developing leisure and industrial footprint, including a Golf Course and the Southern railroad line. The rugged topography of Emmons Ridge and Coal Mine Ridge is dotted with numerous family-named landmarks such as Hawkins Cem and Anderson Cem. This survey captures a rural Indiana transition where traditional valley farming and upland mining near Rattlesnake Hollow met the expanding infrastructure of the mid-twentieth century, evidenced by the Burton Tunnel and isolated schoolhouses like Powell Valley Sch.
