1969 Map of Westplains

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

West Fork Clarks River snakes through the eastern portion of this Graves County landscape, defining the wide agricultural flats of the Casey Bottoms. The terrain is characterized by a series of north-flowing drainage systems, including Turkey Creek and Trace Creek, which separate small upland settlements like Westplains and Clear Springs. This 1960s-era topography, updated with later aerial data, reveals a high density of country churches and rural landmarks, from Shelton Chapel to the Pryor Chapel, suggesting a deeply rooted community structure before the major expansion of modern infrastructure. The Tennessee Valley Divide cuts through the southwestern corner, near where the Mayfield-Graves County Airport and the Julian M Carroll Parkway represent the mid-century modernization of the region's transportation network.
