1991 Map of Maysville
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
The Ohio River acts as the central artery for this borderland, separating the steep, wooded hills of northern Kentucky from the diverse terrain of southern Ohio. In the early 1990s, the riverfront is anchored by Maysville, where the presence of Maysville Community College and Confidence Cemetery points to a long-established regional hub. Across the water, the landscape transitions into the extensive green space of Shawnee State Forest and the Tranquility State Wildlife Area, while smaller river towns like Ripley and Manchester remain tied to the valley's historic transportation corridor. Further inland, the map captures the transition to agricultural plateaus and rural townships, from West Union in Ohio to the river-bluff settlements of Vanceburg and Garrison in Kentucky. This edition documents the region's infrastructure before major modern shifts, showing the persistent rail lines of CSX Transportation and Norfolk Southern following the riverbanks.
