2016 Map of New Liberty

About this map

The Kentucky River flows along the western boundary of this northern Kentucky landscape, where the fertile Marshall Bottom meets the rising terrain of Pink Ridge. The area is defined by a dense network of family and community landmarks, particularly evident in the clusters of burial grounds and houses of worship. In the town of New Liberty, the presence of the New Liberty IOOF Cem and the New Liberty Baptist Church reflects a long-established settlement pattern, while smaller hamlets like Squiresville and Wheatley serve as local hubs for the surrounding farmsteads. The terrain is deeply dissected by watercourses such as Big Twin Creek and Mill Cr, which have historically dictated the placement of winding roads like Quissenberry Pike. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific family-named sites, including the Benjamin Hancock Cem and Lusby/Kemper Cem, which preserve the names of early inhabitants in this rural corner of Owen and Henry counties.
