1969 Map of Oak Level

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Agricultural communities and rural hamlets define the landscape of southwestern Marshall County in the late 1960s. The settlement of Oak Level serves as a local hub, situated near the headwaters of Stillhouse Branch and Middle Fork Creek. This era shows a transition in regional mobility with the Purchase Parkway cutting a modern diagonal through the older network of family-named roads and river crossings. Researchers will find numerous country churches and burial grounds that anchor the local genealogy, including Vanzora Ch, Soldier Creek Ch, and the Dowdy Cemetery. The terrain is shaped by the West Fork Clarks River and its many tributaries like Soldier Creek and Duncan Creek, where the land rises into named elevations such as Potato Hill and Waller Hill. Local industry is represented by scattered resource extraction, notably a Quarry and Gravel Pit near the Graves County line.
