1947 Map of Lodiburg

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Union Star and Lodiburg anchor this 1947 study of Breckinridge County, which captures a landscape of deeply incised valleys and winding ridgeline roads. The map highlights the localized settlement patterns of the late 1940s, with small rural nodes like Sample, Helm, and Mystic connected by improved and unimproved dirt roads. Waterways like Sinking Creek and Yellowbank Creek define the drainage of this dissected plateau, while landmarks such as the Pleasant Valley School provide specific points of interest for those researching local family history. The presence of multiple Cem (cemetery) markings near Ammon and Frymire further serves genealogists tracing early Kentucky residents. This survey, compiled from 1931 data and updated with 1946 aerial photography by the U.S. Army Air Force, reflects the transition from pre-war rural life to the post-war era, documenting the precise location of homesteads and small-scale community centers before modern development altered the rural character.
