1979 Map of Rockfield

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor defines the settlement patterns of this central Kentucky landscape, connecting small communities like Rockfield and Petros as it cuts across the terrain. Numerous Oil Well sites are scattered throughout the region, particularly near Briggs Hill and the Whitestone Quarry, illustrating the area's local energy and industrial history during the mid-20th century. Local social centers are anchored by landmarks such as Rockfield Sch, Grace Ch, and Millikens Chapel, while the topography rises toward Providence Knob. This survey captures the rural character of Warren County before significant late-century development, where traditional agricultural life coexisted with active extractive industries. The map also delineates the boundaries where the county meets Logan and Simpson Counties to the southwest, providing a clear record of property and political lines in this part of the state.
