About this map

Bacon Cr and Sandy Cr define the drainage of this central Kentucky landscape, where small rural communities are connected by a network of winding local roads and modern thoroughfares. The town of Upton serves as a northern anchor, while Bonnieville lies to the south, both positioned along the primary transportation corridor that bisects the region. The map reveals a high density of small family and community burial grounds, such as Brashear Cem and Big Springs Cem, reflecting deep-rooted settlement patterns in Hart County.

Notable geological and water features dot the terrain, including Roaring Spring, Blue Hole Spring, and Round Stone Spring. These springs and hollows, like Priddy Hollow, indicate the karst topography typical of the area. Small settlements such as Lone Star, Priceville, and Riders Mill provide evidence of historical local centers that shaped the development of these uplands outside the larger municipal hubs.
