1954 Map of Meador

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Barren River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of Kentucky, where the counties of Warren, Allen, and Barren converge. In the mid-1950s, this landscape was defined by small agricultural settlements and the intricate drainage systems of Little Difficult Creek and Lick Branch. River crossings like Martinsville Ford and Port Oliver Ford remained critical local landmarks in a period when small-scale infrastructure still tied these rural communities together. The map reveals a high density of local institutions, including New Hope Ch, Flat Rock Ch, and schools like Three Forks Sch, which served the scattered population in places like Kepler and Doty. Evidence of local industry and commerce appears through scattered Oil Wells and the Berry Store, illustrating a self-sufficient economy before significant modern development altered the rural character of the region.
