About this map

The Licking River winds through the southern portion of this Kentucky landscape, defining the topography near Cottle and the distinctive oxbow at Cottle Bend. The settlement of West Liberty appears in the southwest corner, serving as a gateway to a region characterized by numerous creek valleys and elevated ridges like Bolin Ridge. This area is marked by a deep genealogical footprint, with family-named cemeteries such as Adkins Cem, Patton Cem, and Lacy Cem distributed among the hills near Limekiln Knob.

Transportation follows the natural drainage of the Elk Fork and its tributaries, connecting small communities like Elkfork and Elamton. The density of named water features, including Spaws Creek and Williams Cr, illustrates the importance of these waterways to the local infrastructure and historical development of Morgan County. Collectors and researchers can trace the intricate network of county roads that link isolated knobs like Granddaddy Knob to the more established settlements.
