About this map

The Rolling Fork and Beech Fork rivers converge in this southern Bullitt County landscape, defining a region where water and rail have long dictated settlement patterns. The community of Lebanon Junction serves as a primary hub along the CSX railroad corridor, while Boston sits further east near the confluence of Lick Creek and the Beech Fork. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, particularly around Keith Knob and the Hurricane Hills, which separate the river valleys from smaller upland hollows like Scuffletown Hollow.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by numerous country burial grounds, including the Little Brick Cemetery and the Youngers Creek Baptist Church Cemetery near the southern boundary. The presence of Eagle Lake and the intricate Rolling Fork Slough illustrate the complex hydrology of the bottomlands. This modern survey captures the enduring rural character of the area, even as major routes like the Bluegrass Parkway facilitate transit across the historical county lines of Bullitt, Hardin, and Nelson.
