About this map

The agrarian landscape of the Kentucky-Tennessee borderlands is defined by a dense network of family and community burial grounds, illustrating the deep ancestral roots of this rural region. Waterways like West Fork Terrapin Creek and Bacon Creek drain the undulating land, while a grid of local roads reflects generations of farmstead division. Many of these routes carry the names of local families, such as Adams Rd and Judge Easley Rd. For genealogists and local historians, the sheer number of small cemeteries—including Kesterson Cemetery, Doublin Cemetery, and Boydsville Cemetery—suggests the locations of former pioneer homesteads and nineteenth-century settlements. The presence of Cuba School Rd points to earlier community centers in an area where the economy remains tied to the soil and the seasonal flow of Terrapin Creek.
