2013 Map of Orangeburg

About this map

The N Fork Licking River winds through this central Kentucky landscape, defining the topography south of the Ohio River valley near Maysville. In 2013, the region maintained its rural character, anchored by small settlements like Orangeburg and Plumville. The map captures a network of historical thoroughfares, including the Polecat Pike and Dixon Pike, which connect long-standing communities such as Rectorville and Somo. Genealogists may find interest in the Nash Cem located near the river's bend or the family-named hollows like Owl Hollow and Camp Spring Hollow. The presence of Taylors Mill and Mount Gilead suggests a history of local commerce and community gatherings. To the west, the Fleming-Mason Airport stands as a modern landmark amidst the creek-fed valleys of Stone Lick Br and Indian Run, while Grant Lake provides a localized water feature in this upland terrain.
