2016 Map of Walton

About this map

Walton and Crittenden anchor the western corridor of this landscape where Boone, Kenton, and Grant counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of creek systems, including Cruises Cr and the North Fork Grassy Creek, which carve through the hills. This 2016 survey documents a rural and residential pattern characterized by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as the Young Cem and Fishback Cem. The distribution of these sites, alongside landmarks like Boone Lake and Leary Lake, reflects a long-standing settlement pattern where small communities like Piner, Bracht, and Fiskburg maintain their distinct identities. Roadways such as Mary Grubbs Hwy and Dixon Rd facilitate travel between these historically significant locales, providing a detailed view of the regional infrastructure as it existed in the mid-2010s.
