About this map

Rosiclare and Elizabethtown anchor this stretch of the Ohio River bank, where the Illinois-Kentucky border follows the deep channel around Hurricane Island. This riverine landscape is defined by its limestone bluffs and the industrial heritage of the Illinois-Kentucky Fluorspar District, evidenced by the Fluorine Cem label near the shoreline. Inland, the terrain rises into the southern reaches of the Shawnee National Forest, characterized by steep hollows like Holbrook Hollow and named summits such as Keeling Hill.

A dense network of rural roads and historical burial grounds such as Stone Church Cem, Price Cem, and Howard Cem provide significant detail for genealogical research. The river remains the central feature, bordered by low-lying wetlands including Mud Lake and Barnett Lake, while landmarks like the Milford Bridge crossing Big Cr show the persistent transport patterns of Hardin and Livingston Counties.
