1973 Map of Russell Springs
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
Russell Springs serves as the focal point of this 1970s survey, illustrating a community evolving alongside the Cumberland Parkway. The landscape is a complex network of ridges, including the prominent Half Acre Ridge and Foley Ridge, which funnel water toward the deep inlets of Cumberland Lake in the southeast. This era captures the town's expansion toward Middletown and Esto, evidenced by the presence of the County High Sch, the County Airport, and a local Drive-in Theater. Rural life remains anchored by a dense distribution of small community hubs like Sano, Jericho, and Webbs Cross Roads. Numerous country churches and cemeteries, such as New Friendship Ch and Sulphur Cem, are scattered throughout the hills, providing essential touchpoints for genealogists tracing family ties in the Adair and Russell county borderlands.
