1953 Map of Ketchen

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Cumberland National Forest defines the borderlands of Tennessee and Kentucky on this mid-century survey, where the deep drainage basins of Jellico Creek and Capuchin Creek meet. The map reveals a remote landscape of high ridges and narrow hollows, centered around the small settlements of Ketchen, Creekmore, and Cordell. Life here in the early 1950s was anchored by family-named landmarks and rural institutions, including the Gum Fork Ch, Upper Rock Creek Sch, and several isolated burial grounds such as the Blankenship Cem and Adkins Cem.
