About this map

Green River meanders deeply through the tri-county junction of Butler, Edmonson, and Warren counties, defining the region's early transportation and industrial patterns. The waterway is anchored by Lock No 5 near Glenmore and the Honakers Ferry crossing to the west, highlighting a period when river navigation was vital for commerce. The interior is a landscape of ridges like Jolertown Ridge and Region Ridge, separated by a dense network of drainages including Big Reedy Creek and Bear Creek.

Local history and genealogy are well-preserved through several church-cemetery sites such as Bethlehem Ch (Cem) and Mt Pleasant Ch (Cem). Evidence of mid-century industry is visible in the northeast, where an Asphalt Quarry and Strip Mine are noted near the settlement of Segal. Small community centers like Reedyville and Roundhill serve as hubs in this rural landscape, which remains marked by numerous family-named cemeteries and landmarks like Massey Spring.
