2016 Map of Gamaliel

About this map

Gamaliel anchors the southern portion of this Monroe County landscape, where the confluence of numerous creeks and branches feeds into the winding Barren River. The geography is defined by a dense network of country roads named for local families and landmarks, such as Pedigo Rd and Poplar Log Church Rd, connecting small settlements like Flippin and Gum Tree. This 2016 data reflects a rural Kentucky environment characterized by scattered homesteads and ancestral burial grounds, including Mount Vernon Cem and Neal Cem. The intricate drainage system, featuring the East Fork Barren River and smaller tributaries like Isenburg Br and Rocky Br, illustrates the dissected plateau topography typical of the region. Researchers can trace historical property boundaries and community hubs through the placement of these crossroads and the persistent naming of rural corridors like Mud Lick School Rd.
