2013 Map of Briensburg

About this map

Briensburg and Draffenville anchor this Marshall County landscape along the Purchase Pkwy, where the terrain transitions from the lowlands of the Clarks River to the indented shoreline of Kentucky Lake. The map reveals a high density of small family and community burial sites, including Ruggle Cem, Dees Cem, and the Marshall County Memory Garden. These sites are linked by a network of rural routes like Old Briensburg-Gilbertsville Rd and Donohoo Powell RD, tracing the settlement patterns of the Jackson Purchase region. Near the water, the Sledd Creek Cabin Area and Marshall Cabin Area highlight the early 21st-century recreational character of the lakefront, while inland, numerous creeks such as Bloodyshin Cr and Little Bear Cr drain the wooded uplands toward the major river systems.
