2016 Map of Mauckport

About this map

Mauckport, Indiana, and Brandenburg, Kentucky, sit on opposite banks of the Ohio River, linked by the Matthew Welsh Bridge. This riverfront corridor shows the transition from the rolling elevations of Wolfpen Ridge and Mt Tom down to the fertile Crozier Bottom and the karst topography of the Mitchell Plain. The map documents a rural landscape where small communities like Central, Valley City, and Glidas are connected by a network of local roads such as Harrison Heth Rd SW. Genealogists and local historians can locate family burial sites at Hillgrove Cem and Atwell Cem. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by Lick Run and Buck Creek, which carve through the terrain before joining the Ohio. The intersection of county lines and state boundaries highlights the administrative geography of this Ohio River valley region.
