About this map

Meeting Creek and the Rough River wind through this corner of Grayson County, carving a landscape defined by deep hollows and high ridges. The community of Saint Paul serves as a central hub, surrounded by smaller rural settlements like Limp, Tar Hill, and Solway. This 2010 survey illustrates the local reliance on a network of backroads—such as St Paul Rd and Dry Ridge Rd—that connect family homesteads and parish sites.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the numerous burial grounds documented here, including Saint Pauls Cemetery, Saint Elizabeth Cemetery, and Cedar Hill Cemetery. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Western Kentucky Pkwy as it passes near Big Clifty, while more secluded landmarks like McGrew Airport and the distinctively named Double S Hill highlight the region's topographical variety and small-scale infrastructure.
