1936 Map of Oak Level

About this map

Oak Level and the surrounding rural communities of western Kentucky are documented here just before the mid-century, a landscape defined by small-scale agriculture and a dense network of country institutions. The map reveals an era when local life was centered around the numerous neighborhood schools and churches that punctuated the countryside, such as New Constitution Sch and Pleasant Grove Ch. The drainage patterns of the Middle Fork Clarks River and the West Fork Clarks River dictated the placement of early farmsteads and road crossings, with State Highway No 58 providing the primary transit corridor through the region.
