About this map

The suburban landscape of eastern Jefferson County and southern Oldham County is intricately mapped here, defined by a dense network of residential developments and historic community centers. Settlements like Pewee Valley and Anchorage are captured alongside smaller enclaves such as Fraziertown and Berrytown, a community established in the post-Civil War era. The geography is deeply influenced by the winding paths of Harrods Creek and its many tributaries, including South Fork Harrods Creek and Wolf Pen Br, which carve through the undulating land.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several significant burial grounds, including the Berrytown Cem and the Hobbs Memorial Chapel Cem, reflecting the area's long-standing social fabric. The presence of the University of Louisville Shelby Campus and large-scale landmarks like the Louisville Memorial Gardens and Funeral Home East highlight the transition from agricultural roots to a modern metropolitan edge.
