About this map

Hammonville and the surrounding rural landscapes of Larue and Hart Counties appear here during a period of modern agricultural continuity. The geography is defined by a dense network of local roads such as Hammonsville Schoolhouse Rd and Rodney Peace Rd, which connect small hubs like Maxine, Talley, and Wabash. The terrain is characterized by numerous named peaks including Three Springs Knob, Kennedy Knob, and High Hickory, providing a complex backdrop for the region's farms and small settlements.

Local history is preserved in small family and community burial grounds, such as McCandless Cem and Gaddie Cem, which sit near watercourses like Barren Run and Bacon Cr. The map shows a transition from the higher elevations of Barefoot Hollow to the creek valleys, illustrating the historical dependence on local topography for settlement placement. In the southeastern corner, the community of Jonesville and the landing at Pike View mark the edge of the survey, where the roads meet Tampa Br.
