1922 Map of Leitchfield

About this map

Leitchfield serves as the focal point for this rural Kentucky landscape during the early 1920s, where the Illinois Central railroad cuts through the northern terrain. The region is characterized by a dense network of small communities and rural education centers, including the Millwood settlement and Windyville. This map captures a transitional era for local industry, documenting both traditional extraction at the Meredith Coal Bank and modern operations like the Kentucky Rock Asphalt Co Mine near the southern boundary.
