1934 Map of Pall Mall

About this map

Slickford and Parmleysville anchor the cultural landscape of this 1929 survey along the Kentucky-Tennessee border. The area is defined by a dense network of mountain schools and churches, such as Taylor Grove Ch and Langham Sch, serving isolated communities tucked between dramatic limestone features like Teacup Cliff and Bens Cliff. Industrial infrastructure is visible in the form of the Marsh Pumping Sta and Dry Hollow Pumping Sta, hinting at the regional management of resources near the winding course of the Little South Fork. The terrain is famously complex, characterized by numerous named peaks like Bridgeman Mtn and subterranean features including Blowing Cave and Wind Cave. This survey captures the rural character of Wayne County before later 20th-century developments, preserving the exact locations of many family-named landmarks and long-established mountain settlements.
