About this map

Ohio River landings and industrial legacy define this stretch of the border between Kentucky and Indiana. The landscape is shaped by the subterranean activity of the Doe Run Gas Storage Field and the surface utility of Doe Run Mill. Settlement patterns follow the winding course of the river and the fertile basins of Otter Creek, where community life is anchored by locations like Grahamton, Lickskillet, and the Otter Creek Park.

Southward, the influence of the Fort Knox Military Reservation becomes clear, its boundary lines defining the reach of civil settlement. Local heritage is preserved at Buck Grove Ch, Zion Grove Ch, and numerous family burial grounds including Thomas Cem and Garnettsville Cem. From the heights of Iron Mountain to the residential development around Doe Valley Lake, the map documents a transition from river-based commerce to modern military and recreational land use.
