About this map

Pond River and its meandering tributaries, including W Fork Pond River and Thompson Cr, define the drainage patterns of this Hopkins County landscape. Small rural communities like McNary, Bakersport, and Mount Carmel serve as local anchors, connected by a network of roads that carry the names of early local families and institutions.

Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy landmarks through thoroughfare names such as Oglesby Cemetery Rd, Greens Chapel Rd, and Schoolhouse S Rd. The terrain is punctuated by features like Turkey Hill and the wetland environment of Long Pond, while the northern section is intersected by the corridor of the Western Kentucky Pkwy W. The map also captures several traditional crossing points, such as Jethro Ford Rd, which hint at the historical navigation of the region's complex creek systems.
