2016 Map of Sharpsburg

About this map

Sharpsburg serves as the primary hub of this central Kentucky landscape, situated where the borders of Nicholas, Bourbon, Montgomery, and Bath Counties converge. The topography is defined by the winding course of Hinkston Creek and its many tributaries, including Peytons Lick and Grassy Lick Creek. For those tracing family histories in the Bluegrass region, the map is a dense record of rural landmarks, featuring numerous small burial grounds such as Jewell Cem, Carter Cem, and Bramlett Cem. Local spiritual life is anchored by Peytons Lick Church and Smith Chapel Church. The road network, including the evocative Snake Ridge Rd and Convict Rd, connects smaller hamlets like East Union and Judy to the surrounding farmland. The presence of Flemings Pond near the center of Sharpsburg provides a localized point of interest amidst the rolling drainage basins of Somerset Cr and Bald Eagle Cr.
