2016 Map of Hartford

About this map

Rough River winds through the heart of Ohio County, anchoring a landscape defined by historic coal mining and river-bottom agriculture. The corridor between Hartford and Beaver Dam reveals the modern layout of these established Kentucky communities, while the surrounding countryside preserves a dense network of family-history sites. Significant burial grounds such as Old Mill Cem, Render Cem, and Midway Cem are located near older settlements like No Creek and McHenry. To the west, the wetland environments of McCormick Slough and the confluence of Bens Lick and Muddy Cr illustrate the natural drainage patterns that have long shaped local land use. The presence of features like Hawkers Bluff and Alexander Cem provide specific points of interest for those tracing family lineages or studying the evolution of local transport and trade in the region.
