USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
The Kentucky River winds sharply through Estill County, anchoring the twin railroad towns of Irvine and Ravenna during the early 1950s. This survey captures a landscape defined by its river-and-rail economy, where the Louisville and Nashville Railroad tracks parallel the water, serving the industrial hubs and the nearby Lock and Dam No 12. The surrounding terrain is a dense network of hollows and ridges within the Cumberland National Forest, dotted with numerous family-named cemeteries such as Marcum Cem, Powell Cem, and Noland Cem.
