About this map

The industrial and rural landscapes of southwest Jefferson County are defined by the convergence of the Louisville and Nashville and Southern Railway lines as they cut through the ridges of Rock Mountain. This mid-1930s survey captures the region during a period of heavy mineral extraction, evidenced by the Gilmore Mines and numerous company-associated settlements like Yolande, Rockcastle, and Connellsville. The terrain is characterized by the winding Warrior River at Sextons Bend and the sharp parallel ridges of Red Mountain and Shades Mountain to the east.
