About this map

The McCracken and Ballard County line divides this Western Kentucky landscape, where several uniquely named settlements like Cimota City and Ceredo punctuate the rolling terrain. The area is dominated by the modern infrastructure of Barkley Regional Airport and the strategic crossroads near Heath and Grahamville. This modern survey reveals a dense network of local cemeteries, including Saint Thomas Cem, Quarles Cem, and Palestine Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research in this rural pocket west of Paducah.

Waterways such as Little Bayou Cr and W Fork Massac Cr define the drainage patterns between these small communities. The map also captures curiously named locations like Future City and West Future City, reflecting local development aspirations along Hinkleville Rd. From the small town of Kevil in the west to Camelia in the south, the sheet provides a clear look at how historical rural roads and family-named landmarks have integrated with contemporary regional transit hubs.
