Madison County Aerial Photographs, 1957

This set of photographs consists of aerial photographs of Madison County, Kentucky for the years 1954, 1957 and 1959. They were used by the USDA to map farms across the county, and the backs of the photos include rough drawings of farm boundaries with the farmer's surname. Though the backs of the photos were not scanned the names were added to photo descriptions along with relevant landmarks. The most complete year is 1959, but there are some photographs missing, mostly from the center of the county. 1954 and 1957 include very few photographs.
