About this map

Benton serves as the regional anchor on this survey of central Marshall County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Clarks River and its numerous tributaries. The map reveals a dense network of family-named landmarks and local burial grounds, such as the Banks Family Cem and Starks Cem, which provide essential clues for genealogical research in this part of Kentucky.

Elevations fluctuate across notable high points like Sinkhole Hill and Chestnut Hill, while the lowlands are marked by Beaverdam Slough and the distinctive Peggy Ann Spring. Smaller crossroads and settlements like Dogtown, Walnut Grove, and South Marshall are connected by a web of local roads including Toy York Rd and KY 58, illustrating the rural residential patterns of the early 21st century before modern expansion significantly altered the agricultural character of the region.
