2013 Map of Magnolia

About this map

Magnolia and Mount Sherman anchor this rural landscape in Larue County, Kentucky, where the local road network follows the winding paths of numerous creek systems. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of Pottinger Cr, Walters Cr, and Lynn Camp Cr, creating a topography of ridges and bottoms like Sand Hollow. For those exploring local family histories, several burial grounds are scattered throughout the region, including Mt Tabor Church Cem, Dezarn Cem, and Russell Cem. The settlement at Aetna Furnace near the southern border hints at the area's early industrial roots, while the large Magnolia Gas Storage Field represents modern infrastructure. Numerous family-named roads, such as Joe Pottingers Ln and Dennis Whitlow Rd, suggest a persistent pattern of long-standing family landholdings across the countryside.
