2022 Map of Vanceburg
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
Vanceburg and the winding course of the Ohio River dominate this modern topographic view of Lewis County. The settlement pattern follows the fertile river bottoms and narrow creek valleys, with Sandy Springs and Rockville situated on the northern bank across from Buena Vista. Inland, the terrain is defined by deep hollows and ridges, such as Alum Rock Ridge and Griffin Hollow, which dictate the paths of local roads like Slate Hollow Rd. For family historians, the map accurately positions several local burial sites, including Sandy Springs Cem, Evans Cem, and Adams Cem. The transition from the riverside lowlands of Kennedys Bottom to the upland reaches near Kinniconick illustrates the enduring geographical constraints on Kentucky's Ohio River borderlands, where the Ohio Kentucky rail line continues to trace the river's edge.
