1949 Map of Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Nolin River winds in tight, serpentine oxbows through the heart of the region, creating a distinctive landscape of isolated knobs and deep hollows along the Hardin and Grayson County line. Just after the war, the area's social geography is anchored by a network of rural institutions like Oak Ridge School and Meeting Creek Church, reflecting a decentralized community structure. The Illinois Central railroad serves as the primary transportation spine, connecting the settlements of Eastview and Summit across the higher elevations.
