1953 Map of Mill Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Lake Cumberland dominates the northern landscape of this 1953 survey, winding through the rugged border of Pulaski and Wayne Counties. The map documents a critical era of transition as the impounded waters of the Cumberland River reshaped local geography, creating prominent features like Cumberland Point and flooding the lower reaches of Faubush Creek. Inland, the settlement of Mill Springs sits near the site of the Mill Springs Battlefield, a key Civil War location, and the adjacent Mill Springs State Park. The southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by a series of prominent knobs and hills, including Hannah Hill and Boston Hill, where small communities like Touristville and Steubenville are connected by local roads and dotted with rural landmarks such as Lockett Chapel Ch and several one-room schools like Carr Sch.
