1957 Map of Roaring Spring

About this map

Roaring Spring and La Fayette anchor this mid-century portrait of the Kentucky-Tennessee borderlands. The landscape is dominated by the northern reaches of the Fort Campbell Military Reservation, which spans across the Trigg and Christian county lines. The map reveals a transition between agricultural community centers and military land use, with an Airfield situated near the Stewart County line in Tennessee. Along the undulating terrain, local spiritual life is marked by Corinth Ch and Antioch Ch, while the natural drainage of the region is defined by Skinner Cr and the winding course of the Little River. This survey captures the rural road network, including the prominent Lafayette Road, providing a detailed look at the area's development before late-twentieth-century changes.
