1979 Map of Tonieville

About this map

The Middle Fork Nolin River winds through this central Kentucky landscape, a terrain defined by the drainage patterns of numerous branches and runs as they move toward the main channel. Published in 1983 based on 1960 revisions and 1979 inspections, the map shows a network of rural settlements and agricultural hubs like Glendale Junction, Tonieville, and Eagle Mills. This era of the region’s development is characterized by prominent roadway alignments like Airline Road and the Central Tonieville Road, which connect isolated churches such as Siberia Ch and St Anthonys Ch to the larger river economy. Local industry and land use are evidenced by the Mathers Mills site and a specialized Fish Hatchery, while the presence of the Illinois Pipeline cutting across the county line between Hardin Co and Larue Co signals the modern energy infrastructure overlaying this historic rural grid.
