About this map

The Little Sandy River and its numerous contributing forks and branches define the geography of this Elliott County landscape. The settlement of Sandy Hook occupies the eastern edge of the map, while smaller communities like Lytten, Bigstone, and Redwine are situated along the winding valley roads. The region's topography is marked by significant high points including Doctors Knob, which is topped by the Doctors Knob Tower, and Elisha Fannin Hill.

Family history is deeply embedded in the land, as evidenced by numerous named cemeteries such as the Whitt Cem, Polk Howard Cem, and Milton Ladd Carter Cem. The western portion of the map transitions into the drainage of the N Fork Licking River, specifically via Clebitt Br and Mordica Br. This 2013 survey provides a clear look at the contemporary road network, from established routes like Lytten Fork Rd to the more isolated tracks of Poplar Hollow and Mullins Hollow.
