2019 Map of Maysville West

About this map

Maysville and the riverfront communities of Aberdeen and Ripley define this stretch of the Ohio River, where the Kentucky and Ohio border follows the winding water. The landscape is characterized by a series of steep finger ridges such as Puff Ridge, Flaugher Ridge, and Jersey Ridge, which dictate the placement of historic cemeteries and small settlements like Hestoria and Moranburg. At Logan Gap, the terrain creates a natural corridor through the upland heights overlooking the river valley. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites including Maplewood Cem and the Charleston Bottom Cem, while the industrial and residential growth of Country Club Heights shows the modern expansion of the Kentucky side. The map detail highlights how the local road network, including Us Rte 68, navigates the complex hydrology of Lawrence Cr and Big Threemile Creek.
