About this map

Rockcastle Creek and its many winding tributaries define the settlement patterns of this eastern Kentucky region in the early 1990s. Small communities like Inez, Tomahawk, and Davella follow the narrow valley floors, connected by roads that parallel the watercourses. The landscape shows a distinct shift in land use, where traditional mountain settlements and country churches, such as Bethel Ch and Charity Chapel, sit in close proximity to modern industrial footprints. Several large Strip Mine sites are carved into the higher elevations between Middle Fork Rockcastle Creek and Coldwater Fork, illustrating the intense interaction between the region's coal-based economy and its physical geography. The map also records numerous family and community cemeteries tucked away in the hollows near Debord and Davisport, providing essential data for local genealogical research.
