1912 Map of Hindman
USGS Topo · Published 1912About this map
Hindman serves as a central point of settlement in this 1912 survey of the Kentucky mountains, situated at the confluence of the forks of Troublesome Creek. The landscape is defined by an incredibly dense network of hollows and ridges, where life followed the paths of numerous waterways like Beaver Creek and Quicksand Creek. These drainages provided the only practical routes through the steep terrain, as evidenced by the distribution of numbered schoolhouses—such as School No 1 and School No 13—tucked away in remote valleys to serve isolated pockets of the population.
