About this map

The community of Glen Dean and the surrounding rural landscape of Breckinridge County are defined by a network of creeks and prominent knobs. This area is deeply tied to its local heritage, evidenced by numerous family and church burial sites such as the Dunk and Rally Powell Family Cem, Clay Cooper Cem, and Robertson Cem. Small settlements like McQuady and Rockvale serve as focal points in a terrain marked by Black Jack Knob and Cretcheloe Hill.

Transport history is visible through labels like Old Railroad Rd and Old Railroad Bed Rd, indicating the path of former rail lines that once connected these agricultural hamlets. Spiritual life is well-documented with several established congregations, including Saint Mary of the Woods Ch and Black Lick Baptist Church, each often accompanied by its own cemetery. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage systems of Black Lick Cr and Daniels Cr that shape the hollows of this Kentucky region.
