1956 Map of Riverton

About this map

Dale Hollow Reservoir and the winding Obey River dominate this mid-century portrait of Fentress County, where the rising waters of the reservoir reach an elevation of 651 feet at the Spillway. The landscape is a network of ridges and hollows, including Skinner Mountain and Pickett Mountain, punctuated by numerous rural community centers and family-named landmarks. Small settlements like Riverton and Little Crab are the focus of a dispersed population, supported by a dense concentration of local institutions such as Cedar Grove Ch and Broad Door Sch.
