2013 Map of Savage

About this map

Albany anchors the western edge of this Kentucky survey, while the surrounding landscape is defined by the high knobs and ridges of the Cumberland Plateau foothills. The transition from the developed town streets to the rural drainages of Smith Creek and Duvall Creek reveals a settlement pattern built around small agricultural hubs and milling sites like Cannons Mill and Jones Mill. The area's complex topography is marked by several named summits, including Sewell Mountain, Copperas Knob, and Koger Mountain, alongside distinct local landmarks such as The Wolf Den and Possum Kingdom. Numerous family and community burial grounds, including Gwinn Cemetery, Savage Cemetery, and Beaty Cemetery, are scattered across the terrain, serving as vital markers for genealogical research. The presence of the Savage Lookout Tower near the northeast corner suggests the importance of fire observation over the dense woodlands and ridges characterizing this part of Clinton County.
