About this map

Mount Olivet serves as the primary hub of this landscape where the North Fork Licking River carves a winding path through northern Kentucky. The terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, such as the prominent Brierly Ridge and the distinctively named Cow Hollow. This area, split by the Bracken Co Robertson Co boundary, maintains a dispersed settlement pattern with small community centers like Hittville, Bratton, and Bridgeville connected by winding ridge roads.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous well-preserved burial grounds and rural meeting places scattered across the hills. Sites like New Corinth Church Cem, Old Corinth Cem, and Fosters Chapel Cem provide critical links to the families who settled this region. The map also traces traditional routes like Kabler Mill Rd and Sardis Rd, which follow the natural contours of the land toward the river.
