2016 Map of Owensboro East

About this map

Owensboro sits prominently at a wide bend of the Ohio River in this detailed survey, showing a landscape defined by industrial expansion and the historical placement of numerous civic landmarks. The city's eastern edge is notably punctuated by a concentration of significant burial grounds, including Greenwood Cem, Elmwood Cem, and Rose Hill Cem, which offer rich territory for genealogical research. Across the river to the north, the terrain shifts into the rural sections of Spencer County, Indiana, where tributaries like Kelly Cr and Pup Cr drain toward the river. The complex drainage network on the Kentucky side is represented by features like Caney Cr and Garrett Cr, which weave through the developing suburban grid. This edition documents the modern road network, including Rockport Ferry Rd and Keenland Pkwy, illustrating how the region has integrated its riverfront heritage with contemporary infrastructure.
