2010 Map of Oldtown

About this map

Warnock Po and the surrounding valley along Tygarts Creek anchor this rural landscape in Greenup County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges, such as Claylick Ridge and Hanner Hollow, which have dictated the placement of small communities like Samaria and Oldtown. The 2010 survey highlights a significant concentration of family burial grounds including Rose Cemetery, Bays Cemetery, and Warnock Cemetery, providing a detailed record for genealogical research in this part of Kentucky. Waterways like the Little Sandy River and Greenbo Lake shape the eastern half of the map, while numerous branches and forks like Pruitt Fork and Buffalo Branch drain the wooded uplands. This map illustrates a region where local geography is deeply tied to family names and the winding paths of creek-side roads.
