About this map

The Green River carves a deep, winding path through the heart of Hart County, defining the local geography with its dramatic horseshoe bends including Mansfield Bend, Lawler Bend, and Row Bend. The county seat of Munfordville sits perched above the river, serving as the primary hub for a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and numerous named hollows like Raider Hollow and Skullbone Hollow. This terrain is punctuated by distinctive geological features such as the Devils Backbone and Town Knob, which overlook the surrounding ridges and valleys.

Family history is deeply rooted here, evidenced by several small cemeteries and scattered settlements. Genealogists can trace lineage through locations like Logsdon Valley Cem and Hubbard Cem, or settlements such as Priceville, Kessinger, and Woodsonville. The road network, including names like John Logsdon Cemetery Rd and Pulcketts Chapel Rd, indicates the long-standing community ties and rural church locations that have historically anchored life in this part of Kentucky.
