1950 Map of Rushing Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Kentucky Lake dominates this landscape, where the waters of the Tennessee River define the borders of Calloway and Trigg counties. The map captures a transitional moment for the peninsula now known as Land Between the Lakes, showing the complex network of family cemeteries and small settlements that remained after the creation of the reservoir. Notable genealogical sites such as Mays Cem, Lone Oak Cem, and Turkey Creek Cem are scattered across the wooded ridges. The winding route of The Trace provides the primary north-south passage through the interior, connecting remote points like the Lookout tower and the Center Ridge Church. Along the shoreline, recreational development is evident at Kenlake State Park and the Rushing Creek Campground, illustrating the region's shift toward a water-based economy and federal conservation management.
