1952 Map of Rugby

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The settlement of Rugby, a site of significant cultural and social history, occupies the high ground above the Clear Fork river within this topographic record. The landscape is defined by the sharp boundaries of Morgan, Scott, and Fentress Counties, where the terrain transitions into complex hollows like Polecat Hollow and prominent elevations such as Potato Knob. The railway economy is evident along the Southern line, which services the community of Sunbright and passes through the Sixteen Tunnel near Huffman. Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous family-named burial grounds, including Lewallen Cem, Griffith Cem, and Pemberton Cem. The presence of Strip mines and Oil wells near Glenmary indicates the industrial footprint on the land during this period, while the winding course of White Oak Creek and the dramatic Horseshoe Bend characterize the area's natural drainage patterns.
