2019 Map of Monticello

About this map

Monticello serves as the regional hub for this part of Wayne County, sitting at the junction of complex terrain and early Kentucky settlement patterns. The landscape is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges, such as Grannie Hollow and Elk Ridge, which dictate the placement of rural communities like Number One and Oil Valley. The map is particularly rich in genealogical data, preserving the locations of numerous family-specific burial grounds including the Andrew Jackson Roberts Cem, Crabtree Burgess Cem, and the Hardin and Martha Coffey Cem. Water sources are equally central to the local geography, with Elk Spring Cr and distinctive features like Four Neck Pond and Doublehead Spring providing landmarks across the varied elevations. The presence of the Wayne County Airport and the concentrated street grid of the county seat contrast with the dispersed homesteads found along Sumpter Br and near The Round Rock.
