1954 Map of Wayland

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Wayland quadrangle reveals the intricate settlement patterns of the eastern Kentucky coalfields during the mid-20th century. Following the winding course of Beaver Creek and its many tributaries like Right Fork Beaver Creek, the map illustrates a landscape where geography and industry dictate the placement of communities. The presence of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor is central to this development, connecting towns such as Garrett, Lackey, and Minnie (Gibson Sta).
