1953 Map of Temple Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Falling Timber Creek and Glover Creek drain this section of Barren County, where a network of rural schools and churches anchored small farming communities in the early 1950s. The settlement of Temple Hill serves as a local hub near the southern edge, while the uniquely named Eighty Eight sits further east. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet provides exact locations for numerous family burial grounds, including the Wells Cem, Peden Cem, and Nuckles Cem. Educational history is preserved through the locations of the Forest Seminary Sch and Vernon Sch, reflecting an era of localized rural schooling. The landscape is also dotted with spiritual centers like Whites Chapel and Beech Grove Ch, and even evidence of early energy exploration with a labeled Oil Well.
