About this map

The North Fork Saline River snakes through the center of this Gallatin County landscape, its meandering oxbows and wetlands defining the geography south of Elba. In the eastern portion of the sheet, the village of Ridgway serves as a local hub, oriented around a grid of streets including W Main St and S Joseph Dr. The rural surroundings are marked by a dense network of country roads named for local families and landmarks, such as Barefoot Jones Ln, Stahlies Ln, and Overton Rd.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites throughout the township lines, ranging from larger church-affiliated grounds like Oak Grove Church Cem and Union Chapel Cem to the smaller New Bradley Family Cem. This 2018 survey illustrates a persistent agricultural pattern where scattered farmsteads and rural churches like Zion Cem remain the primary anchors of the community amidst the lowlands of Cane Cr and White Oak Cr.
