About this map

Jamboree and the surrounding hollows of Pike County are defined by a complex network of waterways that dictate the region's settlement patterns. Small communities like Fedscreek and Dunlap are situated at critical valley junctions, while the Steele Post Office serves as a central landmark for rural residents. The map reveals the intricate drainage system of the Levisa Fork watershed, including the prominent Big Creek and its numerous forks.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the documented family legacy sites, such as Phillips Cemetery and Flanary Cemetery, tucked into the hillsides. The landscape is punctuated by significant elevation changes, most notably at Hylton Knob. Smaller residential clusters like Rowland Row Camp and Motley highlight the enduring legacy of mountain life and local industries along the winding banks of Johns Creek and Spruce Fork.
