1953 Map of Whitesville
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
Whitesville serves as the primary hub in this mid-century portrait of the Kentucky coal and oil country where Daviess, Hancock, and Ohio counties meet. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Panther Creek and its tributaries, which cut through a terrain heavily dotted with Oil Wells. This energy extraction economy is physically tethered to the Illinois Central railroad, which runs diagonally through the quadrangle, passing through smaller rail stops and settlements like Reynolds Sta and Deaneville.
