1899 Map of Salyersville

USGS Topo · Published 1918

About this map

The Licking River carves a winding path through the deeply dissected Cumberland Plateau on this late 19th-century survey of eastern Kentucky. This era shows the region just as local administrative centers like West Liberty and Salyersville were firmly established as the focal points for the surrounding mountain communities. The map depicts a landscape where human settlement is strictly dictated by the drainage patterns of the North Fork and Middle Fork, with small hamlets such as Hazel Green, Maytown, and Ezel serving as remote outposts among the ridges.
