2019 Map of Pitts Point

About this map

Salt River and Rolling Fork converge in this territory along the border of Bullitt and Hardin counties, defining a landscape of complex ridge systems and hollows. The settlement of Pitts Point sits near this river junction, serving as a focal point for a region characterized by numerous family burial grounds. Dozens of small cemeteries are scattered across the terrain, including Shepherd Cem, Troutman Cem, and Holtsclaw Cem, providing a dense record of early local families and homesteads. The topography is dominated by named heights such as The Knobs, Rising Sun Ridge, and Sugar Loaf, which hem in the narrow valley flats like Atherton Flats and Hays Flats. This map reveals a transition from the upland ridges of Chappel Ridge to the bottomlands where Mud Cr and Indian Run meet the larger river systems.
