1954 Map of Ogle

About this map

Goose Creek defines the northern reaches of this mid-century survey of Clay County, where the landscape is carved by a dense network of branches and hollows. The settlement pattern follows these watercourses, with communities like Gooserock and Brightshade serving as local hubs for the surrounding timber and mountain farming families. Education in the mid-1950s was deeply localized, evidenced by the high density of small rural schools such as Billys Branch Sch, Martins Creek Sch, and Lower Otter Sch situated at narrow valley confluences. The southern boundary reveals the divide between the Clay Co and Knox Co lines, crossing through the headwaters of Lick Log Fork and Groundhog Hollow. Distinctive landmarks like Tater Knob and the Swafford Ch anchor the community geography of this remote Kentucky mountain district.
