1967 Map of Millerstown

About this map

The Nolin River winds through a deeply incised landscape in this 1967 survey, where the river's path defines the borders between Grayson, Hardin, and Hart Counties. The era marks a significant transition for the valley, as the southern reaches of the river are transformed by the Nolin Reservoir. This inundation zone reaches up to Bush Bend, affecting the historical character of the riverside flats. Away from the water, the plateau is marked by scattered rural communities such as Millerstown and Lacon. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific landmarks, including numerous family and community burial grounds like Phillips Cem, Wooden Cem, and Caswell Cem. Local social centers are anchored by country churches, notably the Little Clifty Ch and Pleasant Valley Ch, while the industrial history of the creeks is preserved in names like Riders Mill.
