About this map

Ceda Bluff and Cedar Bluff anchor the central portion of this Kentucky landscape, which is defined by a network of rural settlements and winding waterways. The region is marked by small communities like Scottsburg and McGowan, connected by roads that often trace the names of early local families, such as Stallins Rd and Ray Martin Rd. A distinctive feature is the presence of Railroad Lake and the nearby Railroad Lake Rd, indicating the historical significance of the rail corridor through the area.

Hydrological features such as Goose Cr, Millwood Cr, and Otter Pond drain the terrain toward the south and east. The landscape rises into notable elevations at Bald Knob and Wildcat Ridge, while the Princeton-Caldwell County Airport in the northwest serves as a modern landmark. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of rural hubs like Pumpkin Center and Friendship, providing a clear look at the area's development into the early 21st century.
