2022 Map of Richardson

About this map

Levisa Fork cuts a winding path through this corner of eastern Kentucky, anchoring a network of narrow valleys and ridges that define the local geography. Small settlements like Lowmansville, Charley, and Richardson are scattered throughout the landscape, often situated at the confluence of branches and forks. The map reveals the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, where routes like State Hwy 581 and State Hwy 1690 connect family-named landmarks and hollows. The boundary between Lawrence Co and Johnson Co traverses the southern portion of the sheet, cutting through areas like Chestnut and Whitehouse. Genealogy researchers may find interest in the Butcher Cem near the southern border or the many family-named waterways such as Meade Br, Childers Br, and Stambaugh Br that hint at the area's deep-rooted ancestral history.
