2013 Map of Raywick

About this map

Rolling Fork carves a winding path through this central Kentucky landscape, defining the rural character of the region. The small community of Raywick sits at a central crossroads, while Loretto and Saint Joseph anchor the northern and eastern portions of the map. This area is characterized by family-named roads and topographic markers like Flag Knob and Bald Knob, suggesting a long-standing agricultural and local heritage. Genealogists will find interest in the documented burial grounds, including Saint Francis Xavier Cem and Sutton Cem. The drainage patterns of Sulphur Lick Cr, Prather Cr, and Dry Fork reveal the intricate hydrology that shaped the early settlement and road networks, such as Sally Ray Pike and Homestead Valley Rd, which follow the contours of the knobs and ridges.
