1952 Map of Hollyhill

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Cumberland National Forest dominates this landscape along the border of McCreary and Whitley counties, where high ridges and deep creek hollows define the pattern of rural life in the early 1950s. The settlement at Hollyhill serves as a small hub for the surrounding countryside, connected to dispersed family-named landmarks like Granny Holt Knob and Fate Lee Mtn. The community infrastructure is deeply rooted in local education and faith, evidenced by numerous small institutions such as Bear Wallow Sch, New Liberty Ch, and Kidd Sch. While much of the area remains forested, the emergence of a Strip Mine near Peak Mtn indicates the shifting economic activities of the era. The intricate drainage network of Marsh Creek, Jellico Creek, and Ryans Creek provides the topographical framework for the winding roads and narrow valley settlements that characterize this portion of the Kentucky foothills.
