About this map

Monticello serves as the focal point of this Wayne County landscape, situated at the confluence of several significant local arteries including Airport Rd and College St. To its north, the Wayne County Airport sits atop a rise near Bartleson Hill, while the surrounding countryside is defined by a dense concentration of family-named cemeteries and landmarks that reflect generations of local residency. Notable genealogical sites such as the Hardin and Martha Coffey Cem and the Andrew Jackson Roberts Cem are found south of Oil Valley, a small community situated near Burnett Hollow.

The terrain is marked by distinctive karst and ridge features, including The Pinnacle and Doublehead Spring. Settlements like Sumpter, Cooper, and Barrier are linked by a network of hollows such as Gibson Hollow and Bachelor Hollow. The survey also details the residential expansion of Monticello into neighborhoods like Hickory Nut Hill and Elk Spring Valley, illustrating the evolution of the county seat as it balances its rural heritage with modern infrastructure.
