About this map

The Ohio River forms the western boundary of this territory, where Eighteenmile Island sits offshore from the riverfront settlement of Westport. This community, served by the Westport Post Office, marks a point of historic river access near where Eighteenmile Creek flows into the main channel. Further inland, the landscape transitions from the river bluffs of Covington Ridge and Smith Ridge toward the expanding developed areas of La Grange.

The infrastructure reflects a mix of suburban growth and institutional presence, particularly around Reformatory Lake and the neighboring community of Buckner. Genealogists and local historians can trace the positions of established landmarks like Valley Rest Cemetery near the La Grange Post Office, alongside smaller hamlets such as Russell Corner and Demplytown. The network of smaller waterways, including Harrods Creek, Brush Creek, and Darby Creek, anchors the local topography between these centers of population.
