Kentucky Town and the surrounding prairie of the Grayson Co and Fannin Co border define this survey of northern Texas. The landscape is a network of small agricultural settlements and family burial grounds, such as Batsell Cem and Vittitoe Cem, connected by a grid of farm-to-market roads and local lanes like Gospel Ridge Rd. The terrain is drained by several prominent waterways, most notably Bois d'Arc Cr and Mill Cr, which carve through the undulating plains between Bells and Whitewright. Small aviation strips like Pritchard Airport and Mag-Drop Airport indicate the modern character of these rural communities. Genealogists will find significant value in the high density of small cemeteries, including Rosehill Cem and Kentucky Town Cem, which anchor the history of these established ranching and farming districts.
