2010 Map of Butler

About this map

The Licking River winds through this northern Kentucky landscape, anchoring the town of Butler and the nearby settlements of Boston and Meridian. This early 21st-century survey documents the area's transition between river-valley agriculture and the upland communities of Mount Auburn and Peach Grove. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds, including the Butler Cemetery, Norris Cemetery, and Pleasant Hill Cemetery, many of which sit near established country crossroads like Kohler. The terrain is defined by a network of creeks such as Flour Creek, Twelvemile Creek, and Stepstone Creek, which carve through the ridges connected by local thoroughfares like Hogback Ridge Rd. The map illustrates how historic settlement patterns persist along the watercourses, with farmsteads and rural homes distributed along family-named routes such as Mc Garvey Rd and Reis Ridge Rd.
