1952 Map of Little Hickman
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The Kentucky River carves a deep, winding path through the southern landscape of this Jessamine County survey, forming the dramatic oxbow at Pollys Bend. This river corridor serves as a natural boundary between Jessamine, Garrard, and Madison counties, a region historically defined by its transition from the rolling upland farms near Nicholasville to the steep limestone palisades. A significant historical anchor on the western edge is Camp Nelson, adjacent to the Camp Nelson National Cem, highlighting the area’s importance as a strategic river crossing and Civil War-era base.
