About this map

Liberty serves as the central hub of this Casey County landscape, where the Green River winds through a complex system of ridges and hollows. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of the river and its numerous tributaries, such as Brush Cr and Calhoun Cr, with smaller communities like Pricetown, Moore, and Lanhamtown established along these corridors. To the east, Lake Liberty provides a significant water feature near the city, while the surrounding terrain is defined by prominent elevations including Blue Hole Ridge, Walnut Hill Ridge, and Rigney Ridge.

A network of local roads, such as Caney Fork Rd and Murphy Cemetery Rd, connects family-named landmarks and rural outposts. The map records the area's geography just after the first decade of the millennium, showing the distribution of homes and infrastructure in places like Gilpin and Beech Bottom. Genealogists may find interest in the naming of rural routes like Fred Murphy Rd and Mamie Price Rd, which reflect the long-standing family ties to these specific Kentucky ridges.
