About this map

Irvington serves as the northern anchor for this portion of Breckinridge County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of Sinking Creek and a network of named ridges. The map reveals a dense distribution of family-centered landmarks and rural communities such as Stinnettsville, Graysville, and Hensley. For those researching local heritage, the abundance of small burial grounds provides significant genealogical value, including the Whitworth Cem, Horseley Cem, and Woods Cem near the southern boundary.

Elevated terrain features like Somerset Knob, Pilot Ridge, and Sinking Creek Hill dictate the path of local roads, which often follow the natural contours of the land. The presence of Freedom Church Spr near Garfield highlights the intersection of spiritual and community life in this rural Kentucky setting. Water resources, such as the Blue Fork and Stony Fork, further delineate the varied topography of the region.
