2022 Map of Charters

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Charters and Glen Springs anchor this portion of the Lewis County landscape, where the deeply dissected plateau of the Kentucky Ridge dictates the layout of modern roads and historic homesteads. The terrain is defined by a dense network of hollows, many carrying family names like Hackworth Hollow and Manley Hollow, while the major drainage of Salt Lick Creek carves a winding path through the central valley. Genealogists will find a wealth of local markers, including the McCoy Cem near Eskalapia Mtn and the Valley Cem situated along the corridor of Old Rte 10. The map illustrates a rural Kentucky economy still closely tied to its topography, where settlements like Clarksburg are tucked into narrow valley floors between steep ridges. These landform patterns reveal the challenges of early transit and the enduring locations of family cemeteries like Pleasant Ridge Cem on higher ground.
