2011 Map of Morehead

About this map

Morehead dominates the central landscape of this Kentucky survey, serving as a hub where Triplett Creek and its many branches converge. The presence of Morehead State University and its nearby State University Farm highlights the town's role as a regional educational center. The map reveals a dense network of family history markers, with numerous burial sites such as Forest Lawn Memorial Gardens, Baldridge Cemetery Two, and the Caudill Cemetery scattered through the hollows. Surrounding settlements like Clearfield, Christy, and Brady are tucked into the valley floors, while the higher elevations are marked by distinctive landmarks including Limestone Knob, Amburgy Rocks, and the Triangle Lookout Tower. The terrain is characterized by deep depressions and ridges, named as Rodburn, Negro Hollow, and Rockwall Hollow, which dictate the winding paths of roads like Fallen Timber Branch Road.
