1978 Map of Ezel

About this map

Ezel serves as a primary settlement hub within the undulating terrain of the Daniel Boone National Forest on this 1978 revision. The map highlights a network of small upland communities and family-named landmarks, such as Artville, Korea, and Ebon, connected by a complex system of ridge roads and valley trails. Along the Licking River, the influence of the Cave Run Lake project is evident in the altered water levels and the presence of a boat ramp and local quarries. Genealogists will find an exceptional concentration of family burial grounds, including the Cox Cem, Johnson Cem, and Whitaker Cem, which are scattered throughout the deep hollows. The rural character is further defined by landmarks like the Meetinghouse Branch Ch and a radio tower, illustrating the mixture of traditional settlement patterns and modern infrastructure in Menifee and Morgan Counties.
