1954 Map of Paradise

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Green River serves as the dividing line between Muhlenberg and Ohio Counties in this mid-century portrait of western Kentucky's coal and river country. Along its banks, the Airdrie Iron Furnace stands as a landmark of earlier industrial efforts, located near the small riverside community of Paradise. The landscape is a complex mix of traditional rural life and heavy industry, where numerous Strip Mine operations are carved into the hillsides alongside family landmarks like Maddox Cem and Williams Cem.
