About this map

Cloverport and the surrounding river bluffs define the northwestern corner of this territory, where the Ohio River forms the border between Kentucky and Indiana. The landscape is dominated by a dense network of creek valleys, including Clover Creek and Goehagan Creek, which carve through the plateau toward the river. Historical land use is evident in the numerous small family and community burial grounds found along the ridgelines, such as Chapin Cemetery and Hawkins Cemetery.

Southward, the settlement of Mattingly sits amidst a complex system of drainage branches like Little Beech Fork and Caney Creek. A notable geological landmark, Iron Ore Hill, rises above the southern valleys, suggesting the mineral-rich character of the terrain. The presence of numerous churches and associated cemeteries, including Pisgah Baptist Church Cemetery and New Clover Creek Baptist Church Cemetery, highlights the established rural congregations that have anchored this part of Breckinridge County for generations.
