Atlas of Hopkins County, Kentucky 1898
This abridged Atlas CD contains high resolution digital images of vintage 1898 Hopkins County Kentucky maps that are presented in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). All 1898 Hopkins County precinct maps are included on this CD, as are a number of city, town and village plan maps from this period.
Village and town maps of Hopkins county in this atlas: Ashbysburg, Barnsley, Dalton Dawson Springs, Earlington, Hanson, Hecla, Madisonville, Manitou, Mortons Gap, Nebo, Nortonville, St. Charles and White Plains.
Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no exception; however, by virtue of the Adobe PDF formatting, these documents may be inspected at high levels of magnification without additional digital distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper reproductions and photocopies. Follow these links for examples of Precinct and Village maps.
Each map includes many 19th century features such as:
- toll roads, railroads and canals
- post offices and government sites
- schoolhouses, churches and cemeteries
- rivers, streams and ferries
- race tracks, fair grounds and picnic groves
- industrial sites, distilleries, furnaces and mills
- early property ownership, homesteads and farms
-and much, much more
The abridged Atlas of Hopkins County, Kentucky may be an invaluable aid to Genealogists, Historians and researchers in search of 19th century Hopkins County places and place names. These early maps often contain many places that no longer exist or that have been obscured over time; the location of property owners, businesses, churches and cemeteries may assist genealogical researchers interested in Kentucky history.
