2022 Map of Allensville

About this map

The Allensville community centers this agricultural landscape along the Kentucky-Tennessee border, where the rural character is defined by a dense concentration of family cemeteries and winding watercourses. Significant genealogy resources are scattered across the terrain, including the Allensworth Cem, Belmont Cem, and the Boyd Family Cem to the northeast. These small burial grounds indicate generations of local land ownership and settlement patterns that persisted long after the initial frontier era. The land is drained by the meandering Elk Fork, which joins the Red River at the southern boundary. To the east, the settlement of Keysburg sits near the state line, while Darnell occupies a position further west. The topography is dotted with distinctive features like Mosley Pond and Rum Spring Cr, reflecting a region where natural springs and small waterways dictated the placement of farms and homesteads.
