About this map

Smiths Grove serves as the central hub of this South-Central Kentucky landscape, showing a dense grid of streets including Broadway Street and Main Street that contrast with the surrounding rural terrain. The geography is defined by prominent elevations such as The Knobs, Pilot Knob, and Little Knob, while the subterranean drainage of the region is suggested by features like Sinking Cr and Little Sinking Cr.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the distribution of family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds, including Kinser Cem, Lambert Cem, Moon Cem, and Hays Cem. Smaller communities like Oakland, Rocky Hill, and the descriptively named Chicken Hollow are connected by a network of local roads such as Rocky Hill School Rd and Stoney Point Church Rd, reflecting the area's agricultural and residential development in the early 21st century.
