1954 Map of Wayland

About this map

Right Fork Beaver Creek and its many winding tributaries define the settlement patterns of this eastern Kentucky coal country during the mid-1950s. The industrial character of the valley is evident in the presence of the Chesapeake and Ohio railway lines, which connect specialized sites like Porter Junction and Welce Sta. Local life centers around a dense network of small communities and rural institutions, including the Stumbo Memorial Hospital and the Steele Shop Incline near Wayland.
