1951 Map of Prices Mill

About this map

The winding Red River carves through this agricultural borderland, defining the transition between Simpson County, Kentucky, and Robertson County, Tennessee. Near a prominent bend in the water, the settlement of Prices Mill serves as a local focal point, supported by nearby rural institutions like the Red River Sch and White Hill Ch. The landscape is a network of small drainage systems such as Sulphur Spring Creek and Summers Branch, interspersed with pockets of low-lying terrain like Robey Swamp. Small crossroads communities and family-named locations such as Middleton, Neosheo, and Schweizer are connected by a web of light-duty roads, reflecting a mid-century period of quiet rural persistence. This survey provides a precise look at the placement of country churches like Milliken Chapel and Bethany Ch, which anchored the social life of these dispersed farming families.
