About this map

The Big South Fork Cumberland River winds through the western reaches of this Scott County landscape, defining the topography of the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area. On the eastern side, the town of Oneida serves as the primary population center, with its grid of streets such as N Alberta Ave and W 3rd Ave transitioning into the outlying community of West Oneida. The terrain between these points is a network of ridges and hollows, including Chestnut Ridge and Phillips Ridge, where numerous family-associated cemeteries like Boyatt Cem, Litton Cem, and Marcum Kidd Cem are situated.

Local history is etched into the names of the land, from landmarks like Indian Head Mtn and Pilot Rock to the small settlement at Foster Crossroads. The northern border marks the transition into the Daniel Boone National Forest and across the state line into Kentucky. This modern survey provides a clear view of how decades of settlement patterns have aligned with the natural features of the Cumberland Plateau, preserving names like Sheeppen Hollow and Cottonpatch Knob.
