About this map

McKinneysburg sits at a prominent bend in the Licking River, marking a landscape where the river’s winding course dictates the local geography of Pendleton and Harrison Counties. This 2016 survey shows a rural interior defined by narrow ridges and deep hollows, such as Moonshine Hollow, which feed a complex network of tributaries including Blanket Creek and Snake Lick Creek. The small settlements of Antioch and Kelat serve as interior crossroads, connected by historic routes like the Old Falmouth Road.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Old Mount Vernon Cemetery near the northern river bluffs, while the crossing at Richland Creek Bridge highlights a key point in the local transportation network. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the drainage of the South Fork Licking River, illustrating the high density of small watercourses that have shaped the agricultural and settlement patterns of this Kentucky region for generations.
