2010 Map of Savage

About this map

Savage and its surrounding hollows characterize this corner of Clinton County, where agricultural life follows the winding paths of Smith Creek and Koger Creek. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Sewell Mountain, Jacks Knob, and Kennedy Mountain, which separate the various valley settlements. Historically significant sites like Cannons Mill and Jones Mill point to a local economy once tied closely to the waterpower of these creeks. Family history is well-preserved across the landscape through numerous burial grounds, including the Gwinn Cemetery, Irvin Cemetery, and Looper Cemetery. The road network, including Old Kentucky Rd and Old Savage Hill Rd, suggests long-established travel routes connecting small communities like Upchurch, Duvall Valley, and Rolan before the modernization of the local infrastructure.
