About this map

Lake Cumberland dominates the northern reaches of this Wayne and Pulaski County borderlands, where the waters of the Fishing Creek Shoals meet the main body of the lake near Burnside. The landscape is a dense network of ridges and hollows, including Sally Turpin Hollow and Stillhouse Hollow, revealing a region defined by its complex topography and rural settlement patterns. Genealogy is central to this map, which documents an extraordinary number of small family and community burial grounds such as Barker Family Cem, Weaver Farm Cem, and Hutchinson Cem Number Two.

South of the water, the terrain rises toward Duncan Mtn and Gobblers Knob. Cultural landmarks include the New Salem Hutchison Church and the notable Chief Doubleheads Grave near Doublehead Gap, providing specific points of interest for local historians. Small crossroads like Frazer, Hardwick, and Kidder connect the upland ridges, while the Hardwick Bridge crosses the winding course of Cedar Sinking Cr.
