1954 Map of Vicco
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
Carr Fork and the Louisville and Nashville railroad define the industrial and residential corridors of this Perry County landscape during the mid-1950s. The map illustrates a dense network of coal-era settlements and hollows, where small mining-related communities like Wiscoal, Vicco, and Anco follow the narrow valleys. The presence of numerous institutions, such as the Open Door Childrens Home near Cornettsville and various rural schoolhouses like Georges Branch Sch and Big Branch Sch, suggests a series of established, self-sufficient valley communities separated by the steep ridges of the Cumberland Plateau.
