USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
The Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani anchors the cultural landscape of this 1950s survey, marking a significant religious and postal landmark east of New Haven. The terrain is characterized by a dense concentration of knobs, including Forty Acre Knobs, Watson Knob, and Blue Gap Knobs, which dictate the winding paths of the Beech Fork and Rolling Fork rivers. These waterways, along with Pottinger Creek, provided the natural corridors for early development and the path of the Louisville and Nashville railroad.
