1961 Map of Tallega

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Middle Fork Kentucky River and North Fork Kentucky River carve deep, winding paths through this section of the Cumberland Plateau, joined by the critical infrastructure of the Louisville And Nashville railroad. This transportation corridor dictates the placement of communities like Tallega, Athol, and Oakdale, where the rail line pierces the ridgelines through engineering feats like the Tyler Tunnel and Mud Tunnel. The map reveals a deeply settled rural landscape defined by narrow hollows and numerous local landmarks, including the Tallega Mission Sch and Rock Lick Mission Hall.
