1952 Map of Keene

About this map

Clear Creek winds through the central portion of this landscape, carving a deep valley through the limestone-rich terrain south of Pinckard. In the early 1950s, this area of Jessamine County was characterized by small agricultural clusters and crossroad settlements such as Keene and Dixon Town. The topography is notably defined by its drainage patterns, including Sinking Creek and the East Fork, which feed into the larger creek systems that have shaped the rural development of the region.
