1957 Map of Indian Mound

About this map

Indian Mound and the surrounding Stewart County countryside are defined by a complex landscape of mid-century military expansion and natural conservation. The northern half of the region is dominated by the Fort Campbell Military Reservation, where the terrain transitions from the headwaters of Piney Fork and Noah Spring into the controlled grounds of the base. To the south, the establishment of the Cross Creeks National Wildlife Refuge and the presence of Lake Barkley indicate the significant environmental and hydrological changes that shaped this area by the late 1950s.
