1957 Map of Roaring Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Roaring Spring and the surrounding borderlands of Trigg and Christian Counties appear in this mid-century survey as a region defined by agricultural traditions and a growing military presence. The southern half of the map is dominated by the Fort Campbell Military Reservation, which spans the state line between Kentucky and Tennessee. This federal footprint contrasts with the older settlement patterns of La Fayette, where a concentration of dwellings and businesses lines the Lafayette Road. Local landmarks such as the Antioch Ch and various scattered cemeteries provide anchor points for genealogists and local historians. The landscape is carved by water, with the Little River winding across the northern section and smaller tributaries like Skinner Cr and Noah's Creek draining the southern hills. An Airfield located near the state boundary points to the active aviation requirements of the military installation during the 1950s.
