About this map

Owsley and Breathitt counties meet in this 1961 survey, where the winding Middle Fork Kentucky River cuts through the northeastern corner. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of narrow creek valleys and named forks, including Cow Creek and Beech Fork, where small settlements and schoolhouses anchored rural life. Communities like Lerose and Spencer follow the Meadow Fork, while Ricetown sits at the confluence of the Left Fork and Right Fork in the west.
