About this map

Muldraugh Hill and the Dividing Ridge define the rugged elevation of this Central Kentucky landscape, where the headwaters of Rolling Fork and Big Pitman Cr carve through the terrain. This rural corridor between Spurlington and the northern edge of Campbellsville is marked by numerous family-named knobs and gaps, such as Paine Knob and Mill Gap.

Settlement patterns follow the winding creek valleys and ridges, with small communities like Finley, Phillipsburg, and Jessietown connected by a network of rural lanes. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several notable burial grounds and institutions, including the Saint Matthews Church and its namesake cemetery, alongside smaller sites like Rafferty Cem and Saint Francis Cem. The presence of Coxs Lake and Sportsman Club Lake highlights the importance of managed water resources in this hilly region near the Marion County line.
