1954 Map of Rhoda

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Green River carves a deep, winding course through the karst landscape of the Mammoth Cave National Park in this 1954 survey. The map details a transition between the protected parklands and the settled agricultural communities to the south, such as Rhoda and Chalybeate. In the park interior, small islands like Crump Island and Stice Island dot the river, while the complex terrain is marked by deep hollows and named ridges like Collie Ridge. Cultural landmarks like the Maple Springs Ranger Sta and Houchins Ferry provide evidence of the park's early management and accessibility. South of the park boundary, the map reveals a network of rural life centered around local institutions, including Silent Grove Ch and Capitol Hill Sch. Small family cemeteries like Jaggers Cem and Spillman Cem are scattered throughout the region, offering significant data for genealogical research into the area's mid-century residents.
