1956 Map of Monterey Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Calfkiller River carves a winding path through the heart of this landscape, marking the rugged transition between the plateaus and deep coves of the Putnam Co White Co border. In the mid-1950s, this region was defined by small, family-centered settlements and rural institutions like Big Spring Ch and the nearby Big Spring Sch. The map illustrates the concentration of community life along the river valley and its tributaries, including Cove Creek and Mill Creek. To the northeast, Monterey Lake and Camp Monterey stand as established landmarks, while the surrounding terrain is deeply etched by named hollows such as Verble Hollow and Stamps Hollow. This survey provides a vital record for those tracing local lineages through the numerous family burial grounds, including the Henry Cem and Crouse Cem, which are situated near old crossroads and early mountain schools like Robinson Sch.
