1960 Map of Taylorsville
USGS Topo · Published 1994About this map
The Salt River winds through this central Kentucky landscape, meeting Brashears Creek at the county seat of Taylorsville. This mid-century survey, updated with 1990s revisions, illustrates the significant transformation of the terrain following the creation of Taylorsville Lake in the southeast. The inundation of the Salt River valley for flood control fundamentally altered the local geography, yet many traditional land markers remain. Rural settlements like Normandy, Rivals, and Elk Creek are mapped alongside family-named terrain features such as Snyder Bluff and Anderson Hill. The map captures the area's agricultural character, defined by scattered Cem sites and a network of state roads like KY 44 and KY 55 that connect these upland communities to the river valleys.
