1952 Map of Levee

About this map

The rugged borderland of Montgomery and Clark Counties in the early 1950s is defined by a dense network of watercourses and high knobs. The landscape centers on the community of Levee, where Cream Alley Branch and Hog Creek converge. To the south, the terrain rises sharply toward White Rock Mtn and Morris Mountain, punctuated by prominent landmarks like Pilot Knob and Gravel Knob. This era shows a rural social infrastructure still anchored by local institutions such as the Westbend School and Westbend Church, alongside the recreational grounds of the McKee Boy Scout Camp. Industrial activity is evident in the White Rock Quarry and scattered gravel pits, while the settlement at Indian Fields reflects the region's agricultural roots. The winding course of Lulbegrud Creek serves as a natural boundary, weaving past Oil Springs and Hollywood Springs toward the southern limits of the quadrangle.
