2022 Map of Mason

About this map

Williamstown anchors the northern reaches of this rural Grant County landscape, where the terrain transitions from the heights of Simpson Ridge and Chipman Ridge into a dense network of creek valleys. The area is defined by its small crossroads settlements and an exceptionally high concentration of family and community burial grounds. From the Kentucky Veterans Cem North near the county seat to the isolated Risen Cem and Ackman Cem, the map provides a significant record for genealogical research. Narrow ridgeline roads like Oak Ridge Rd and Lincoln Ridge Rd connect disparate hamlets such as Mason and Blanchet, following the natural contours above Fork Lick Cr and Musselman Cr. The southeastern corner near the Grant and Harrison county line shows the quiet clustering of Cordova and Stringtown, centers of local life amidst the rolling topography of Odors Bottom.
