About this map

Agawam and Ruckerville anchor this central Kentucky landscape, where the headwaters of Upper Howard Creek and the Red River have carved a network of ridges and hollows. The settlement pattern is defined by traditional crossroads and family-named landmarks, reflecting generations of rural continuity. Genealogists will find a high density of small family burial grounds, including Adams Cemetery, Irvin Cemetery, and Fox Cemetery, often situated on high ground near winding rural routes like Fox Quesenberry Rd.

Religious and community life is centered around sites such as Boones Creek Church Camp and the Dunaway Church Cemetery near Midway. To the north, the Combs Mountain Pkwy cuts a modern path through the rolling terrain, passing near Pilot View and Schollsville. This survey captures the transition of historical hamlets like Rabbit Town and Rightangle into the 21st century, maintaining their identity through established road networks and persistent local place names.
