1952 Map of Rockfield

About this map

Rockfield serves as a central hub in this Warren County landscape, where the Louisville and Nashville railroad and the Louisville Jefferson Davis and Nashville Highway parallel one another through the karst-influenced terrain. The area is marked by a significant concentration of Oil Wells and several Quarry sites, particularly in the northern reaches near Briggs Hill and Blue Level. This industrial footprint is interspersed with established rural communities like Rich Pond and Petros. Local history and genealogy are anchored by numerous country churches and cemeteries, such as Providence Ch and Pleasant Hill Cem, alongside early educational landmarks like Salem Sch. The map reveals a mid-century economy where transportation and resource extraction shaped the development of these small Kentucky settlements.
