About this map

The Levisa Fork carves a deep valley through this Pike County landscape, serving as the primary corridor for settlements and transport. Along its banks, the rail and road network connects communities like Shelbiana, Millard, and Justiceville. Significant industrial and transit infrastructure is evident at Shelby Yard and Ward Siding, illustrating the region's reliance on the movement of resources through the Appalachian terrain. Away from the river, the landscape rises toward high points like Stratton Knob, where the Stratton Knob Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the surrounding ridges.

Local history and genealogy are anchored in numerous hollows and cemeteries, such as the Annie E Young Cem and Collins Cem. The map documents a dense network of family-named landmarks and small communities, including Garden Village, Upper Chloe, and Raccoon. From the Sulpher Spring near Red Creek to the shoreline of Fishtrap Lake, the map traces the intersection of natural water features and human habitation in the early 21st century.
