About this map

The Walcott Covered Bridge spans Goose Cr near Woolcott, serving as a notable landmark in this part of Bracken County. The landscape is defined by the branching drainages of Locust Cr, Turtle Crk, and Willow Cr, which carve through the plateau and create prominent features like Chatham Ridge. The county seat of Brooksville serves as the central hub, surrounded by smaller rural settlements including Powersville, Gertrude, and Cumminsville.

Genealogists can find localized historical records at Hamilton Cem and Asbury Cem, which are situated along the network of ridge-running roads such as Salem Ridge Rd and Hackett Ridge Rd. The presence of the Brooksville Reservoir south of the main town highlights the local water infrastructure, while the distribution of family-named roads like Moran Rd and Doyles Rd reflects long-standing patterns of land ownership and agricultural development in this Kentucky hill country.
