About this map

The Barren River snakes through Warren County in a series of dramatic loops, carving deep bends like The Narrows and passing landmarks such as Sallys Rock. This 1973 revision reveals a landscape shaped by both topography and extraction, with numerous Oil Wells scattered across the eastern uplands. Small rural communities like Hadley and Benleo serve as anchors for the surrounding countryside, connected by winding roads and the prominent Green River Parkway.

Genealogists will find a wealth of localized data, from several namesake churches including Glen Lily Ch and Highland Ch to numerous unnamed family cemeteries marked simply as Cem. The confluence of the Gasper River and the Barren River defines the central terrain, while named features like Marcum Bluff and Snowbirds Point highlight the distinct bluffs and high points that overlook the river valley's winding path.
