About this map

Shelby Creek and the Sandy Valley & Elkhorn RR form the central artery of this eastern Kentucky coalfield landscape at the start of the Great War. The map reveals a dense network of mountain communities and numbered school districts tucked into every hollow and creek bend, including Wales, Virgie, and Yeager. Industrial development is evident in the rail sidings and stations like Penny Sta and Myra Sta, which served the emerging resource extraction economy.
