2019 Map of Faubush

About this map

Siever Knob and the surrounding ridges of rural Kentucky dominate this modern survey of the region where Pulaski and Russell counties meet. The landscape is a network of ridges and hollows, such as Shinbone Ridge, Happy Ridge, and Wildcat Ridge, which dictate the placement of small communities and family burial grounds. Settlements like Faubush, Burnetta, and Norfleet are situated along winding state routes and local roads, while the modern Cumberland Pkwy cuts across the northern terrain near Ingle. Family history is well-preserved through numerous scattered cemeteries, including Smith Grove Cem, Weddle Cem, and the Floyd Family Cem. The complex drainage system is marked by dozens of small waterways like Faubush Cr, Sputter Br, and Wolf Cr, which have shaped the local topography and the placement of early homesteads.
