1950 Map of Standing Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Pumpkin Ridge and the Tennessee Valley Divide define this landscape of deep hollows and high ridges between the Tennessee River and Lick Creek. Following a 1947 aerial survey, this map captures a network of rural communities centered on landmark institutions like Trinity Ch and McGee Chapel. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named landmarks, including McClanahan Cem and Sexton Cem, which reflect long-standing settlement patterns in the Between the Rivers region. To the west, Kentucky Lake occupies the lower elevations, while Lake Barkley is visible to the northeast, illustrating the massive hydrological changes of the mid-20th century. Notable elevation points like Hickman Creek Hill and the fire tower provided essential lookout points over the heavily wooded hills and winding watercourses like Standing Rock Creek.
