Uniontown sits at a critical bend of the Ohio River in Union County, where the waterway defines the winding border between Kentucky and Indiana. This riverine landscape is dominated by complex hydrography, including extensive sloughs like Grassy Slough and Rattle Slough, and significant islands such as Slim Island and Wabash Island. The town's grid is preserved in detail, showing streets from Main St to Sigsbee St, along with the Uniontown Cem and Saint Agnes Cem on the town's eastern outskirts. South of the river, Highland Creek and Dry Fork drain the hills, while across the water in Indiana, the Hovey Lake area and Pirogue Slough reveal a low-lying floodplain characterized by wetlands and agricultural tracts. The map illustrates how the river's path, including Mississippi Bend, has historically shaped local commerce and settlement patterns.
