About this map

Inez serves as the focal point of this Eastern Kentucky landscape, situated along the winding course of Rockcastle Cr. The town is anchored by the Martin County Courthouse and radiates outward along roads like Main St and E Main St. The surrounding geography is defined by a dense network of creek valleys and hollows that have historically dictated the placement of small communities such as Tomahawk, Davella, and Debord.

Transport and genealogy are central to the map's character, with family-named landmarks such as Ward Cem and numerous named branches like Saltwell Branch Rd and Lynn Bark Fork Rd. The transition from rural homesteads to modern developments is visible in residential areas like Cardinal Ests. To the west, the border between Johnson Co and Martin Co follows the high ridgelines, separating the drainage of Stafford Fork from the Panther Br headwaters.
