2016 Map of Smiths Grove

About this map

Smiths Grove sits at the heart of this Warren County landscape, showing the town's layout near the intersection of Louisville Rd and several historic routes. The terrain is defined by prominent karst-related features and knobs, including Pilot Knob and The Knobs, which rise above the surrounding sinkholes and intermittent drainages like Sinking Br. The northeastern corner of the map reaches into the southern boundary of Mammoth Cave National Park near Cedar Spring, highlighting the region's unique subterranean hydrology. Local genealogy is well-supported by numerous family-named landmarks and resting places, such as Moon Cem, Hays Cem, and Kinser Cem. The map traces the transitions between small communities like Oakland and Rocky Hill while documenting the intricate network of local roads such as Chalybeate Rd and Knobs Rd that linked these rural settlements in the 21st century.
