About this map

Hibernia and the surrounding rural uplands of the Green River watershed are depicted in this recent survey, where the convergence of Taylor, Green, and LaRue counties creates a complex network of ridgeline roads and creek valleys. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of Big Brush Cr and Otter Cr, which carve through the terrain south of the prominent Muldraugh Hill rise. Settlement patterns follow the high ground, with small communities like Wards, Badger, and Maple linked by historic thoroughfares such as Campbellsville Rd and Hodgenville Rd.

For family historians, the sheet is exceptionally well-documented with small family burial grounds. These include the Skaggs Cem, Walker Cem, and Dewitt Cem, which are scattered among the farms and woodlots. The map also traces the winding courses of numerous named branches like Black Snake Br and Poplar Grove Br, providing a detailed view of the local drainage that has influenced land use in this part of Kentucky for generations.
