1953 Map of Monticello

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Monticello serves as the focal point for this mid-century portrait of Wayne County, where the transition from town streets to the deeply dissected terrain of the Cumberland Plateau is clearly visible. The landscape is defined by long, fertile corridors such as Beech Valley and Elk Spring Valley, which are hemmed in by steep features like Elk Ridge and Coffey Mountain. This topographical pattern dictated the placement of early settlements and rural infrastructure, seen in the scattering of country schools like No 2 School and Travis School.
