1954 Map of Slaughters

About this map

The Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor anchors the community of Slaughters, where the tracks parallel the eastern edge of the Shake Rag Hills. This mid-century survey reveals a landscape of ridge-top settlements and winding valley roads, with the Webster Co Hopkins Co boundary cutting diagonally across the terrain. While the town of Slaughters sits as the primary hub, smaller points of interest like Veazey and a Strip Mine (Inactive) hint at the local transition from agriculture to mineral extraction.
