1954 Map of Noble

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Troublesome Creek and Buckhorn Creek anchor this mid-century survey of the Eastern Kentucky coalfields, where the landscape is defined by tight hollows and family-named landmarks. The area around Stacy (Rowdy PO) and Ary PO shows a pattern of settlement closely tied to the watercourses, with numerous family cemeteries like Harvey Cem and Fugate Cem dotting the ridges above the valley floors. The presence of the Camp Robinson University of Kentucky Engineering Camp and the Bethel Childrens Home points to the specialized land use in this part of Breathitt County during the early 1950s.
