2013 Map of Sugar Grove

About this map

Little Muddy Creek and its many tributaries, including Neils Creek and Belcher Creek, define the landscape of this southern Kentucky region. The area is characterized by a high density of family and community burial sites, such as Lee Cemetery, McKinney Cemetery, and Bailey Cemetery, which offer significant value for genealogical research. Small settlements and historic junctions like Davis Crossroads, Sugar Grove, and Dimple serve as the primary hubs for a network of rural roads that follow the winding terrain. Distinctive landmarks such as Peach Orchard Knob and the geological formation at Hanging Rock overlook the creek valleys. The map also reveals the rural development along the Gasper River in the southeast, where the terrain transitions into the deeper Richelieu Hollow near the settlement of Richelieu.
