1950 Map of Mingo Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Log Mountains and the Mingo Mountains dominate this 1950 topographical study, revealing the deeply industrial and communal character of the Kentucky-Tennessee border. Small coal-driven settlements like Fork Ridge, Bryson, and Manring are connected by the L & N railroad lines that snake through Mingo Hollow and the Clear Fork valley. These communities, often located at the base of steep spurs like Moseley Spur and Whiteoak Spur, were supported by local institutions such as Union School and Monarch School.
