About this map

The community of Hibernia serves as a central point in this part of Taylor County, where the landscape is defined by the branching tributaries of the Green River watershed. Numerous family-named burial grounds, such as Dewitt Cemetery, Underwood Cemetery, and Skaggs Cemetery, are scattered across the terrain, offering a clear map of the area's genealogical footprint. The road network follows the ridges and valleys carved by Big Brush Creek and the various forks of Otter Creek, including West Fork Otter Creek and Middle Fork Otter Creek.

Small settlements like Mac, Bloyd, and Badger are connected by a web of local routes like Hibernia Ridge Rd and Social Band Rd. This 2010 survey reflects a rural Kentucky landscape where modern infrastructure intersects with deep-seated local history, from the banks of Sand Lick Creek in the southeast to Wards in the northwest. The density of smaller cemeteries like Beams Cemetery and Webster Cemetery highlights the enduring presence of long-established local families throughout the district.
