2019 Map of Bordley

About this map

Sulphur Spring Hills and Springer Hill rise above the rolling landscape of Webster and Union counties, where small rural settlements like Shelton and Bordley anchor a network of country roads. The map reveals a high concentration of small family and community burial grounds, such as Holeman Cem and Richards Cem, which are essential for genealogical research in this part of Kentucky. Industrial activity is represented by the Load Star Energy facility near Hearin, contrasting with the more traditional agricultural and wooded areas along Caney Fork. Significant water features include Cap Mauzy Lake and the Bordley Ditch, which indicate historical efforts to manage the local drainage. These details, along with established ridges like Persimmon Ridge and Yuba Ridge, illustrate the persistent intersection of the region's topography with its long-standing farming and energy-producing communities.
