2019 Map of Creekville

About this map

Red Bird River winds through the heart of this Kentucky landscape, following a deep valley where small communities like Creekville and Spring Creek are situated along the riverbanks. The settlement pattern is strictly dictated by the drainage of the Cumberland Plateau, with residences and local routes concentrated in narrow hollows such as Hog Hollow and Ivy Hollow. Higher elevations are defined by named peaks like Hoskins Knob and Negro Knob, while the Redbird Crest Tr traverses the ridgelines. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for identifying isolated family burial sites, including Hoskins Cem, Holland Cem, and Arnetts Cem, which are tucked into the hills above the Arnetts Fork. The border between Clay Co and Leslie Co cuts through these ridges, separating the headwaters of numerous creeks that feed the larger river system.
