About this map

Fredonia serves as the central hub of this Western Kentucky landscape, where the intersections of W Pierson St and Cassidy Ave anchor the local community. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Livingston Cr, which carves through the countryside past distinctive landmarks like Whitt Bluff and The Bluff. Significant for genealogists and local historians, the area is dotted with numerous family and community burial grounds including Sulphur Springs Cem, Campbell Cem, and Crider Cem.

The agricultural and rural character of the region is evident in the scattered settlements of Mexico and Bakers, connected by a network of established routes such as Marion Rd and Sulphur Springs Rd. To the south, Fredonia Valley opens up, drained by Skinframe Cr and its tributaries. This survey captures a moment of continuity in Caldwell County, showing the enduring placement of homesteads and cemeteries amidst the hills and creek bottoms of the Pennyroyal Plateau region.
