2022 Map of Elliston

About this map

Arnolds Creek and Eagle Creek carve a winding path through this corner of northern Kentucky, defining a landscape of sharp ridges and deep hollows. The settlement pattern follows these high points, with crossroads communities like Four Corners and Downingsville established along the ridgetop roads. This modern survey captures the enduring rural character of the region, where family-named landmarks and small burial grounds like Delf Cem and Sipple Cem remain central to the local geography. Significant water features including Ten Mile Creek and the dramatic loop at Horseshoe Bend illustrate the complex drainage network that has historically dictated travel and farming. The presence of multiple ridgetop cemeteries such as New Vine Run Cem and Pettit Cem serves as a vital record for genealogists tracing legacy families in the vicinity of Elliston and Stewartsville.
