About this map

Cumberland National Forest dominates the western landscape of this 1950s Kentucky survey, where the ridges of Owsley, Lee, and Jackson counties meet. The region is defined by a dense network of mountain streams, including the winding Sturgeon Creek and its many tributaries like Little Sturgeon Creek and Rowlette Creek. The map documents a rural economy of small, creek-side settlements and scattered oil wells in the north near Standing Rock Ch.
