1899 Map of Salyersville

About this map

The Licking River and North Fork Kentucky River anchor this late 19th-century survey of the Cumberland Plateau's intricate drainage systems. The landscape is defined by a dense network of mountain hollows and creek branches, where small settlements like Hazel Green, Ezel, and Maytown served as early focal points for local commerce and community. The county seats of West Liberty and Jackson appear as the primary urban centers, connected by a web of early roads and trails that followed the winding watercourses.
