1953 Map of Tracy

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Peter Creek and its many winding tributaries like Caney Fork and Dry Fork carve through the landscape of the Barren and Monroe county borderlands in the early 1950s. This agricultural region is defined by a dense network of country schools and family-centered landmarks. Small rural hubs such as Cooktown, Etoile, and Tracy serve as focal points for the surrounding farmsteads. The map reveals a high concentration of small cemeteries and local congregations, including Pleasant Hill Ch, Kirby Grove Ch, and Pleasant Point Ch. A notable industrial marker is the Gas Well located in the southern portion of the sheet near Hunt Creek, indicating early resource extraction in an otherwise pastoral setting. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous family-named burial grounds like Mosby Cem, Chambers Cem, and Thompson Cem that dot the hillsides.
