1971 Map of Rosine

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Rosine and Horse Branch sit as central nodes within a landscape defined by the winding course of Caney Creek and the steel rails of the Illinois Central railroad. This 1971 revision captures the rural character of Ohio County just as the Western Kentucky Parkway established a modern corridor across the southern hills. The map provides significant genealogical value, documenting numerous family-named landmarks and local burial sites like McCord Cem, Wilson Cem, and Baizetown Cem. Community life is centered around local congregations such as Shiloh Ch and Leach Chapel. North of Rosine, the appearance of a Strip Mine and the Illinois Tunnel Hill highlights the region's intersection of coal mining and railroad engineering, while rugged elevations like Wildcat Knob and Rattlesnake Knob break the valley terrain.
