About this map

The Green River flows through this West Kentucky landscape, marking the boundary between McLean and Webster Counties. This modern survey captures a region defined by its river-bottom lowlands and the modest rises of Coltharpe Hills and Wrightsburg Hill. Small rural settlements like Beech Grove and Onton serve as local hubs, connected by a network of named country roads such as Highbanks Ferry Rd and Wrightsburg Rd.

Genealogical interest is particularly high due to the density of recorded burial sites, including the Lynn Family Cem, Old Onton Cem, and New Salem Methodist Church Cem. The map provides a clear record of the area's agricultural character, tracing the paths of Deer Creek and Pitman Cr through the fertile valleys. From the riverfront at Wrightsburg to the western edge near Sebree, the documentation of these local landmarks preserves the contemporary layout of these longstanding Kentucky communities.
