1952 Map of Smith Mills

About this map

The Ohio River bottomlands south of Diamond Island define the landscape of this 1950s survey, where the border between Henderson and Union Counties follows the winding path of Highland Creek. This era reveals a region where the traditional agriculture of settlements like Smith Mills and Alzey was increasingly punctuated by industrial activity, as evidenced by the numerous Oil Wells scattered across the lowlands and the Cabel Hills. The drainage pattern is particularly intricate, featuring a network of sloughs such as Fishitrap Slough, Hogan Slough, and Mill Pond Slough that speak to the wet, alluvial nature of the terrain. Local genealogy is anchored by landmarks like St Francis Ch and the Smith Mills Cem, providing a clear view of the rural social centers near Hitesville before modern expansion altered the footprint of these river communities.
