2010 Map of Heath

About this map

The Old Kentucky Ordnance Works dominates the northern landscape of this McCracken County region, a site established for TNT production during World War II. By the early 21st century, the area surrounding Heath and Grahamville exhibits a blend of this industrial legacy and a deep-rooted rural character defined by numerous family and church graveyards. Small settlements like Cimota City, Lamont, and Future City are connected by a network of local roads such as Woodville Rd and Hinkleville Rd. To the east, the Barkley Regional Airport marks a significant modern infrastructure point near the West Fork of Massac Creek. The terrain is carved by numerous waterways including Bayou Creek and Little Bayou Creek, which run northward toward the Ohio River. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites, from the Harmony Cemetery to the Quarles Cemetery, reflecting generations of local family history.
