2016 Map of Burnside

About this map

Lake Cumberland and the Big South Fork Cumberland River dominate this Pulaski County landscape, where the intricate shoreline creates numerous peninsulas and deep inlets like Antioch Bend and Woodson Bend. The town of Burnside sits at the northern confluence, while smaller settlements such as Tateville, Sloans Valley, and Alpine are linked by the NS rail line and local roads. This 2016 survey illustrates the modern topography of the Daniel Boone National Forest, which covers the southern portion of the map. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Grave Hill Cem, Cave Springs Cem, and the Mount Union Baptist Church Cem. The rugged terrain is characterized by named features like Seed Tick Knob and Dead Ox Hollow, reflecting the deep-rooted local nomenclature of this river-carved region.
