About this map

Irvington serves as the primary hub in this corner of Breckinridge County, anchored by a grid of streets like Grand Avenue and High Street. The landscape transitions into a series of smaller rural communities, including Payneville, Webster, and Sirocco, each connected by a network of winding roads. These settlements reflect the agricultural and residential patterns of north-central Kentucky, where small clusters of homes are often defined by their proximity to local landmarks or family-named routes such as Richardson Rd and Fackler Rd.

Geographical features like Hogback Hill and several drainage basins including Sinking Creek define the local topography. For those researching family history, the map identifies several burial sites, such as Mt Merino Cem, Sandy Hill Cem, and Richardson Cem. The presence of numerous hollows, including Deadhorse Hollow and Prather Hollow, suggests a terrain shaped by consistent erosion and typical of the region's limestone-influenced karst landscape.
