About this map

The North Fork Licking River winds through this rural landscape in Mason County, where small agricultural hubs like Plumville and Rectorville anchor a network of traditional pikes and lanes. This 2010 depiction reveals the enduring rural structure of the region, from the riverside settlement of Springdale along the Ohio River to the inland crossroads of Poplar Grove. Local family history is centered near the Nash Cemetery and the site of Taylors Mill, while the modern Fleming-Mason Airport stands as a primary landmark in the southwest.

Water plays a critical role in the topography, with Cabin Creek, Stone Lick Branch, and Strodes Creek carving through the terrain. Named landforms like Sycamore Hill and Owl Hollow provide distinct points of reference for researchers tracing property lines or historical migration. The road network, including the descriptive Polecat Pike and Creamery Pike, reflects the area's agricultural past and connection to the river commerce of the north.
