2016 Map of Clarkson

About this map

Clarkson and the surrounding Grayson County landscape are defined by a complex network of creeks and small rural settlements. The topography transitions from the flatter northern sections near Crow Hollow to the more dissected terrain around the Nolin Lake headwaters in the south. This area includes several notable family-named landmarks and local sites, such as Confederate Hill and the Logsdon Cem, which provide essential reference points for genealogists tracking local families. Transportation is anchored by the Wendell H Ford Western Kentucky Pkwy and a web of secondary roads like Saint Augustine Rd and Downs School Rd, which connect small communities including Peonia, Skaggstown, and Johnson Crossroads. The southern portion of the map highlights the recreational and hydrological impact of the Nolin Lake reservoir, where Conoloway Cr and Pearson Br feed into the larger water system.
