About this map

The agrarian landscape south of Clayton in Barbour County is defined by a dense network of watercourses and rural crossings. Barbour Creek and Lindsey Creek drain this territory, which is marked by historic points of transit such as Millers Ford. The area around the settlement of Lindsey highlights a local economy historically tied to water power and recreation, evidenced by the Adams Millpond and the nearby Louisville Club Pond.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Warren Cemetery in the north and Pleasant View Cemetery further south. The map also documents specific geologic and naming patterns of the region, from the Lime Sink terrain feature to numerous family-named roads like Bud Gary Rd and Williams Mill Rd. The road network reflects a long history of property divisions and mill access that shaped the community's development into the early twenty-first century.
