2019 Map of Johnetta

About this map

Daniel Boone National Forest defines the deeply dissected landscape of this 2019 survey, where the boundary between Jackson and Rockcastle County follows the winding ridges. The map documents a network of rural settlements including Threelinks, Climax, and Johnetta, which are connected by narrow ridge-top roads such as Climax Rd and Three Links Rd. Local history is preserved through numerous family and community sites, such as the Chastine Cem, King and Clark Cem, and the Johnson School near Limestone Br. The drainage patterns of Horse Lick Cr and Brushy Creek illustrate how the geography dictated the placement of early homesteads and transport routes like the Brush Cr Station in the southwest. This edition provides a detailed view of the contemporary interface between public forest lands and private holdings in the Kentucky hills.
