2019 Map of Blandville

About this map

Blandville sits at the center of this rural landscape, surrounded by a high density of family cemeteries and small creek crossings that define the heritage of western Kentucky. The terrain is bisected by the wide, marshy corridor of Mayfield Creek, where Saint Arbor Slough and the West Fork Mayfield Creek meet in a complex wetland system. The map documents the scattered rural community structure typical of this region, with crossroad settlements like New-York, Gage, and Magee Springs connected by a network of winding roads. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites across the ridges, including Hillcrest, Martin, and Robinson cemeteries, providing a detailed look at the local settlement patterns. Farther south, Cunningham and the outskirts of Bardwell appear near the Ballard Co and Carlisle Co line, showing how the local infrastructure navigates the challenging floodplain geography.
