2022 Map of McDaniels

About this map

The Rough River snakes across this Kentucky landscape, its waters slowed by the Rough River Lake reservoir which reaches into the northern reaches near Hinton Hills. The boundary between Breckinridge and Grayson counties follows the winding riverbed, carving through a region defined by small agricultural settlements and family homesteads. Genealogists will find a high density of family burial grounds, such as the Ann Mariah Shain Deweese Cem and Shain Cem near Short Creek, alongside community landmarks like the Horn Back Mill. The map documents the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, from the Pilgrim Missionary Baptist Cem to the scattered hamlets of Duff and McDaniels. Diverse terrain features like Copper Slick Hollow and Cobblers Knob break the forested uplands, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the North Fork Rough River system.
