1950 Map of Johnsonville
USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee River dominate this landscape, reflecting the massive transformation of the region following the creation of the reservoir. The map poignantly marks the site of Johnsonville (Abandoned), a town superseded by the rising waters and the relocation of residents to the modern settlement of New Johnsonville further south. This transition from a river-town economy to a power-generating industrial hub is anchored by the Johnsonville Steam Plant and its associated infrastructure, including the Johnsonville Station on the L & N RR.
