About this map

Daniel Boone National Forest encompasses the western portion of this landscape, where the settlements of Annville and Tyner serve as focal points for a network of rural roads and ridge-top communities. The terrain is defined by its deep drainages, including the headwaters of Pond Cr and Moores Cr, which dictate the placement of local homesteads and small hamlets like Welchburg and Egypt. Family history is deeply rooted in the landscape, evidenced by numerous burial sites such as Castee Cem, Dunn Cem, and Walnut Hill Cem that dot the hillsides.

The southeastern corner of the quadrangle marks the convergence of the Jackson, Clay, and Laurel County lines, a significant area for local researchers. This region shows the persistent geography of the Moores Creek School Rd area and remote landmarks like Zekes Point and High Knob. The map traces the winding paths of state routes through narrow valleys, connecting historically distinct locations like Royrader and Datha amidst the dense woodland.
