1953 Map of Livingston

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Rockcastle River snakes through the heart of the Cumberland National Forest in this mid-century survey, creating a landscape defined by deep hollows and narrow ridges. The town of Livingston serves as a central hub where the Louisville and Nashville railroad and Wilderness Road Construction meet the river's edge. History is deeply embedded in the terrain here, from the Camp Wildcat Battle Monument overlooking the heights to the Great Saltpetre Cave in the north. The map documents a rural infrastructure of one-room schools like Rockingham Sch and Mullins Sch, alongside small post offices such as Lamero (P O). Civil engineering and industry are evident in the winding Old Telephone Road and various Strip Mines that dot the wooded uplands near the Jackson and Laurel County lines.
