The rugged coal-country terrain of Boone County is captured here during a period of active surface mining and industrial development. Small settlements like Andrew and Prenter are linked by the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad line, which follows the winding valley of Hopkins Fork. The map documents a deeply vertical landscape where family history is etched into the hillsides at the Harless Cem, Bias Cem, and Jarrells Cem.
