1962 Map of Redbush

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Gas and Oil Field operations dominate the topography of northern Johnson County, where a dense network of wells and pipelines marks the intersection of rural life and industrial extraction. Small creek-side settlements like Redbush and Keaton serve as hubs for the surrounding hollows, connected by winding routes like KY 172. The landscape is deeply incised by waterways such as Paint Creek and Blaine Creek, which create natural landmarks including the Natural Bridge and Paint Cliff. Local educational and spiritual centers are well-documented, with the Burchett Flat Sch and Old Bethel Ch providing vital points of reference for genealogists. In the southern portions of the map, the shift toward coal extraction is evident at the Strip Mine near Maddick Br, illustrating the diverse energy resources being tapped during this era of Kentucky's history.
