1953 Map of Tracy

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Peter Creek and its many winding tributaries define the rural landscape of southern Barren County in the early 1950s. This agricultural territory is dotted with numerous country schools and churches that served as community anchors, such as the Antioch Sch and Pleasant Point Ch. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of Caney Fork and Dry Fork, where small clusters of homes at Tracy and Etoile represent the primary centers of local commerce. Family history is deeply rooted here, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds including the Bradshaw Cem and Mosby Cem. The map reveals a transition into Monroe County at its southern edge, where Union Church sits near the boundary line. A single Gas Well suggests the early reach of natural resource extraction into this otherwise quiet farming region.
