2010 Map of Heidrick

About this map

Richland Creek and its many winding tributaries, including Middle Fork Richland Creek, define the topography of this Knox County region near the turn of the 21st century. The landscape is dotted with small settlements such as Rossland, Arkle, and Emanuel, alongside significant local transport and communication points like the Heidrick Post Office. Family history is deeply rooted here, evidenced by numerous burial sites such as Scott Chapel Cemetery, Tuggle Cemetery, and Pfaff Cemetery tucked into the hollows. Distinctive local place names like Booger Hollow, Gozey Hollow, and Gillam Knob highlight the cultural character of the terrain. The presence of Baileys Switch indicates the area's historical connection to rail infrastructure, while prominent heights like Kirby Mountain and Paint Hill overlook the creek valleys and the network of roads, including Parker Branch Rd and Lynn Camp Hollow Rd, that connect these close-knit rural communities.
