1929 Map of Springdale

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Maysville and Manchester anchor this late 1920s riverine landscape, where the Ohio River serves as both a boundary and a central artery. The mapping reveals a dense network of upland agriculture and rural education across Adams and Lewis Counties, evidenced by the high concentration of one-room schoolhouses like Hamilton School, Roush School, and Scott School. In Kentucky, the topography rises sharply from the riverbanks toward Eskalapia Mountain and Pine Knob, creating a complex terrain of hollows such as Owl Hollow and Happy Hollow. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad follows the northern bank, connecting river towns like Wrightsville and Bradysville. Further south, the community around Tollesboro and Poplar Grove is defined by small churches and family-named landmarks including Stone Lick Ch and Canaan Ch, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement patterns of the era.
