About this map

The Middle Fork Kentucky River winds sharply through this corner of the Cumberland Plateau, defining the life and transport of Breathitt County in the mid-twentieth century. Small communities and family homesteads are concentrated along the narrow valley floors of Shoulderblade Creek, Bowling Creek, and Turners Creek. Local centers such as Crockettsville and Canoe serve as anchors for a landscape dotted with numerous family cemeteries, including the Hounshell Cem and Callahan Cem.
