1956 Map of Volga

About this map

Big Graham Creek and Big Creek wind through the deeply dissected landscape of Jefferson and Jennings Counties, carving a complex network of valleys that define the local topography. This mid-century survey reveals a rural society anchored by small crossroads like Lancaster and Volga, where local identity is preserved in numerous country churches and family burial grounds. Notable institutional and community landmarks are scattered across the terrain, from the County Infirmary and Lookout Tower near Five Points to the sprawling Camp Louis Ernst Boy Scout Camp in the northern hills.
