1969 Map of Smithfield
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor anchors the landscape of this Kentucky region, connecting small community hubs like Pendleton and Smithfield. The 1969 topography reveals a transition toward recreation and energy infrastructure, marked by the expansive Lake Jericho and an Underground Gas Storage Field in the south near Blakemore Road. Local history is preserved in naming conventions of the secondary roads, including Old Ballard School Road and Fort Pickens Road, which navigate the winding drainages of Floyds Fork and Harrods Creek. The map documents a period where traditional rural settlements like Sligo and Jericho coexist with modern developments like the Drive-in Theater near Pendleton and the Green Valley Country Club near Crystal Lake.
