2019 Map of Shopville

About this map

Buck Creek winds through the central corridor of this Pulaski County landscape, serving as the primary drainage for numerous tributaries like Latham Br and Flat Lick Cr. The settlement pattern is defined by small communities such as Shopville, Valley Oak, and Stab situated along winding valley roads. The topography is notably marked by isolated summits including Cash Knob, Menifee Knob, and Fanny Knob, while the eastern portion transitions into the protected acreage of the Daniel Boone National Forest. For local historians and genealogists, the map identifies several rural landmarks including the Pleasant View Church and Flat Lick Church, alongside family-named burial sites such as Childress Cem, Bullock Cem, and Gilmore Cem. The presence of Sinking Valley and Price Valley suggests a landscape deeply shaped by its hydrological patterns, where early roads followed the natural contours of the ridges and bottoms.
