About this map

New Concord serves as the central hub of this Calloway County landscape, situated where the Blood River meets the western shores of Kentucky Lake. The area's agricultural and rural roots are visible through the distribution of small settlements like New Providence and Pottertown, connected by a network of local roads that navigate the complex drainage systems of Goose Cr and Wildcat Cr. For genealogists, the map is a significant resource, documenting numerous family-named burial sites including Barnett Cem, Coleman Cem, Hicks Cem, and Stubblefield Cem.

The topography is defined by the transition from upland ridges to the low-lying hollows and creek beds, such as Culpepper Hollow and Egypt Hollow. Development near the lake is evident in the denser residential street patterns around Waterfield Dr and Riverview Blvd, contrasting with the more dispersed rural character found along the McCullough Fork at the southern edge of the sheet near the state line.
