2022 Map of White Oak

About this map

Magoffin and Morgan Counties meet along a ridge-and-valley landscape defined by the serpentine Licking River. This 2022 survey captures the settlement patterns of eastern Kentucky, where small communities like White Oak, Harper, and Wonnie are connected by a network of rural roads following the natural contours of the land. The mapping of cemeteries provides significant genealogical value, noting several family-specific sites such as the Andrew Jackson Patton Cem, Patrick and Lovely Cem, and Saul Howard Cem. Navigation throughout this area centers on river features like Carpenter Bend and Fanning Bend, while prominent landforms such as Jeff Lewis Hill and Ditney Ridge dominate the horizon. The presence of Pipeline Rd and multiple unnamed structures suggests a mix of residential and industrial footprints within the Appalachian foothills.
