About this map

Pellville and the winding boundaries of Hancock and Daviess counties anchor this topographical study of north-central Kentucky. The landscape is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, most notably Bates Hollow in the southeast, where local life follows the contours of the land. Small clusters of settlement such as Weberstown, Floral, and Gatewood are connected by a web of narrow rural routes including Lewis Port Utility Rd and Hawesville-Pellville Rd.

Genealogists will find significant value in the scattered family and community burial grounds, such as Oak Grove Cem, Powers Cem, and Lamar Cem, which often represent the earliest documented markers of these unincorporated communities. The concentration of place names like Chambers and Goering alongside their namesake cemeteries suggests deep-rooted land ownership patterns that have persisted for generations.
