About this map

Green River and its South Fork drainage define this landscape of the south-central Kentucky knobs. The area is characterized by a dense network of family-named ridges and hollows, including Bluster Ridge, Hacker Ridge, and Polly Ridge, which separate small agricultural communities. Several significant family burial grounds and landmarks are documented here, such as the Antioch Graveyard and Carson Cem, which serve as vital touchstones for local genealogy.

River crossings like Rubert Ford and Evans Ford indicate the historical importance of the waterway before modern bridge infrastructure. Small settlements such as Phil, Evona, and Teddy are connected by winding roads that follow the natural contours of the land, while the boundary between Casey and Russell counties runs through the southern reaches near Windsor. Notable local institutions like the Antioch Church and Baldock Church remain central landmarks in this rural landscape.
