2010 Map of Nebo

About this map

Nebo and Vanderburg anchor this rural landscape in the western coal field region of Kentucky, where a complex network of small waterways and family-named cemeteries defines the local geography. The terrain is notably drained by Slover Creek and Bull Creek, with Balls Hill providing a distinct rise in the eastern portion of the quadrangle. For those researching local lineages, the map is remarkably dense with burial grounds, including the Harralson Cemetery, Winstead Cemetery, and Lisman Cemetery, which serve as permanent markers of the area's early settlement families.
