1946 Map of Rose Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Kentucky Virginia Divide follows the crest of Cumberland Mountain, forming a high natural border between Harlan and Lee counties. Below this massive ridge, the terrain transitions into the valley floors of Poor Valley Ridge, where the Louisville and Nashville railroad links small rail-side communities like Rose Hill and Hagan. This era shows a landscape deeply defined by family-named landmarks and rural institutions, from High Top Sch to a high density of country churches such as Speaks Chapel and Enon Ch.
